Windows (2k) memory page size

[pim42]

I was looking though MSDN but couldn't find this... what is the page size of memory in windows (2K)? ie what is the smallest chunk of memory windows allocates to a process (or thread)?

In Windows 2000 processes are allocated memory in blocks of 4-K pages.

This means it will round up to the nearest 4K boundry.

Hope this helps,

The GetSystemInfo function fills a SYSTEM_INFO struct. The size of a virtual page is stored in the dwPageSize field.
