| Concept | Explanation | |---------|-------------| | | Allows a 32-bit application to map physical memory beyond 4 GB into its working set. SQL Server uses AWE only for data pages, not for executable code or stack. | | /3GB boot.ini switch | Shifts the user-mode virtual address space from 2 GB to 3 GB, leaving 1 GB for kernel. Helps SQL Server have a larger virtual address range but does not increase total physical memory usage beyond 2–3 GB without AWE. | | /PAE | Physical Address Extension – enables 36-bit addressing, allowing Windows to use >4 GB physical RAM. Required for AWE on 32-bit. | | Lock Pages in Memory | Windows privilege that, when granted to the SQL Server service account, prevents AWE-allocated memory from being paged out to disk. |
