Select and respond to one of the following claims regarding memory. Consider whether it is a valid claim. If it is, use an example to explain why. If it isnt a valid claim, use a counterexample to explain why not. Finally, explain how understanding of the specific scenario you mentioned can aid in operating system design, implementation, and support.

To avoid page space issues, its usually a good idea to allocate as much space as possible to virtual memory.

Virtual memory is a hack; we should just increase the size of main memory and stop with this virtual memory foolishness.

When a system slows down, increasing the amount of virtual memory is usually a good first step at fixing the issue.

Memory management algorithms are not as useful as they could be because they assume a prioi knowledge about process priority and memory requirements.
