Windows 10 Limit Memory Map files RAM usage?

[darthVader007]

Is there any way to limit the maximum RAM that memory maps can use in Windows (for the whole os or a particular process (Elasticsearch)) so that we can keep a java application from being paged out due to lack of memory causing large garbage collection pauses?

The memory mapped files won't come under the heap. So, setting max heap for Elasticsearch doesn't help in restricting the memory mapped files memory.

Pretty sure that size is managed by the program itself, so you may need to consult documentation or open a support ticket.
