It can be adjusted lower to save Ram, or higher to increase the amount of room the OS can use. Somewhere in between is the sweet spot that gives you the best of both worlds.

Unlike your PC, you don't have GB's of HD space on a smartphone to make the page pool as huge as you want.

There is an app that allows you to change the PagePool amount prior to flashing the rom. (see below - Thanks thewahlrus!)

THANKED!
I appreciate the explanation I think I'm getting it a little, time to search for a thread about it
