Checking the BCHR takes only a few seconds and it gives me a quick thumb view of "is there more than this complaint?" coming. Helps me to quickly size up the server as this is low, we might have all kinds of issues relating to memory and my phone might start ringing more. I would still need to investigate further, but it keeps it in my mind that I might have memory issues.

Granted in 2005 I might approach this differently as there are better ways to check memory pressure, but in 2000 and before, this is a good quick check.

If this is high, then I have to investigate, but also check with others to see if things are slow. I've found that many times when something is slow, that person's PC is running slow or they're just having a bad day and are impatient.
