set virtual memory for best performance inspiron mini 1018

I have a inspiron mini 1018 and have increased the memory to 2GB.  I was wondering what else I can do to improve performance, though the memory increase really helped.  What should my paging file be set to? Currently there is a check in automatically manage paging file size for all drives. At the bottom under total paging file size for all drives is: Minimum allowed 16MB, Recommeded: 3055, currently allotted: 2037. Should I make any changes to this and if so, what? Thanks for any help!

    Recomendtion is usually 1-1.5 times the RAM size. In adition, set the minimum and maximum size to the same value. This will allow the data to reside in a single, contiguent unfragmented, space which should run smoother.
