which platform?

for 32-bit there was rule to configure [3...4*(size of RAM)], installation guides for latest SAP products recommend:

10GB on 32-bit Windows

20GB on 64-bit Windows

however, these are only start values - you can increase/decrease them in process depending on your system needs (workload, buffer size, amount of RAM installed etc.)

best regards
