Virtual RAM is just storage for what would be held in RAM, and used of you run low/out.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

Its used by OS and software to cover if and when RAM gets filled. But since it has been available for software pretty long time, some software need it to even work properly. So even if you'd have 64gigs, you will need some small pagefile to keep those software happy.
