  • Patent number: 9361226
    Abstract: An apparatus for adjusting a memory transfer setting includes a storage device storing machine-readable code and a processor executing the machine-readable code. The machine-readable code includes a determination module determining that an amount of main memory exceeds a threshold percentage of secondary storage on an information handling device. The machine readable code also includes an adjustment module adjusting a memory transfer setting on the information handling device in response to the determination module determining that the amount of main memory exceeds the threshold percentage.

  • Publication number: 20160123013
    Abstract: A roof panel includes a planar body having top and bottom edges, with a downturn edge extending therebetween, and an opposing channel edge. The downturn edge overlays a channel edge of an adjacent panel. The bottom edge overlays a top edge of another adjacent panel. A plurality of courses extends between the channel and downturn edges. Each course includes a nesting ridge to receive the downturn edge of an adjacent panel and to position a top surface of the panel flush with adjacent panels. Surface channels and contoured ridges are defined within each course. A drain aperture of the drip edge aligns with an adjacent channel edge to direct material through the drain aperture and onto adjacent panels. A gable member engages an edge when the panel has one or fewer laterally adjacent panels, wherein the gable member is flush with the adjacent planar body.
