By default it tries to use as much memory as it can, like all db engines 
- but can be configured to be more polite.

One drawback I could find is that VSS uses a "file server" approach, 
while CVSNT and SQL Server uses a "application server" approach. 
Microsoft servers have an option to be configured for "file server" or 
"application server" utilization, different caches are allocated. Go to 
My network places -> Properties, right click the network connection, 
select Properties, select File and printer sharing for Microsoft, click 
property and select the best optimization for your needs.
