    Great article David. Thank you.

    I thought that there were limits imposed on the various memory components based on on the total amount of memory given to SQL Server.

    For example: Proc Cache limits

    SQL Server 2005 SP2

    75% of server memory from 0-4GB +

    10% of server memory from 4Gb-64GB +

    5% of server memory > 64GB

    So 14GB given to a SQL SERVER 2005 SP2 would yield a 4GB Proc Cache.

    Is it correct in stating that the limits do not exist and proc cache for example can consume additional memory?

    Thanks

    Mark

    This is my understanding as well.
