Long Documents and memory
I'm sorry for the crosspost but after looking at other newsgroups I think
this may be the best place for this question. If there is a better place please inform me. I have a Pentium 2.6 GHZ machine with a half gig of memory. I have one document is 76 pages long, with lots of links to other documents but no graphics. I find that the Windows performance monitor says I am using over 50% of my CPU when this document is open open. I am just wondering what if anything can be done about this. Is it possible that the file is corrupt or is this normal for a file of this size. The actual size in Windows Explorer is 543kb. If the file is corrupt how may I determine this and how may it be fixed? It is not clear to me if adding another half gig or ram would be of particular help or not. If so, that is an option but performance monitor indicates my memory use is only at about 256 K. I find that if the WORD file is minimized, the CPU usage drops way down. It is inconvenient, however, to have to manually minimize the file when I alt-tab to various windows. Maybe there is a switch in WORD that will reduce them to an icon automatically when you tab to something else. Any suggestions would be appreciated. |
