Why is that a problem?
And no, 'a comfortable value is apparently 24 / 4 * 300 = 1800 seconds or 30 minutes', is not a comfortable level, that's a way of calculating the point below which suggests memory pressure, or at least too much churn.

Well, I didn't think so, but when I Googled on "page expectancy level high" (and they said the same as you Gail), the biggest "high" example I found was 70,000 not 3,600,600!

Does this mean the infrastructure team will be saying I should drop the amount of RAM allocated to this server in VMware as it's not being used?
