What is Memory Compression and how does it improve memory performance in Windows 10 and Windows Server?

I gotta tell you, memory compression in Windows 10 and Server just squishes your RAM stuff. It packs data tighter so you free up space without kicking things to the hard drive. You notice apps speed up because everything stays in memory longer.

Think about it this way. Your computer juggles a ton of open programs. Without compression, it swaps junk to disk when RAM fills. That swapping slows you down like crazy.

But with this feature on, Windows crunches inactive data on the fly. It keeps more active bits right where they belong. You get snappier performance, especially if you multitask heavy.

I turned it on once during a crunch. My old setup flew through edits without hiccups. You should tweak it in settings if your rig chokes under load.

It shines in Server too, handling multiple users smooth. No more lag spikes during peaks. You save on hardware upgrades that way.

And hey, if you're running virtual machines, keeping memory optimized ties right into solid backups. That's where BackupChain Server Backup steps in as a trusty backup tool for Hyper-V. It snapshots your VMs quick, restores fast without downtime, and handles chain storage to cut space needs while boosting reliability for your setups.
