Perfmon - process:page faults/sec
My question is, My perfmon counters reads anywhere between 0 and 1200 with the average being around 250 faults/second.
My concern is my memory max size being too large, I have 4gb ram, SQL reports usage at 2.9 GB, my max mem size is 3.9 gb, should I maybe set my SQL server to use a fixed memory size of 2.9 gb?
Thanks in advance

Process: Page Faults/sec
If this value is greater then 0 then the SQL Server process is producing soft page faults and as a result CPU overhead. Try setting the working set size value to be as close to the SQL Server's memory allocation.

Typo, actual max mem is 2 gb.
