  Dear Experts,
  Please advise what one can do to increase the Page Life Expectancy. The PLE of one of the stand alone databases in our environment is hovering around 300 seconds despite a good 54 GB max memory (out of 64GB total) . The database size is 600 GB with 18 processors (No NUMA). Thank you for the help.

  Thanks...Arshad
