VAS/MemToLeave and the Plan Cache

    Hello,

    Could someone let me know if the plan cache is located within MemToLeave or is separate?

    I know that MemToLeave is reserved before the buffer pool when SQL starts up, but what about the plan cache?

    Thanks in advance,

    Andrew

    The plan cache, as well as all the other caches are part of the buffer pool.

    The pre-allocate of MemToLeave is only on 32-bit SQL and the memory management has changed significantly in 2012 anyway
