Thanks Jonathan - I think on average I learn something new for every 5 words you write when you respond to something.

I don't know if that's purely you being a good teacher or partly because I'm a dumbass.

I assume what you are talking about when saying look at the ring buffer entries is checking out the sys.dm_os_ring_buffers at the RING_BUFFER_RESOURCE_MONITOR type. If that is correct and I'm looking at the data correctly, the RESOURCE_MEMPHYSICAL_LOW events all have an IndicatorsSystem value of 0 and an IndicatorsProcess value of 2. Based on what you are saying is this suggesting that we are not on this server experiencing any issues with a grow/shrink cycle and that those events seem to be limited to individual processes needing more memory? In this case the server has only been up for 2 days now after installing the CU6 update so it might not be long enough for it to get to the point that memory becomes a problem.

Cheers,

Paul.
