When I start rust, in few minutes the notification from system that there is no memory comes and it is necessary to close programs: rust.exe for normal work of system. How can I solve it? The pagefile.sys has the size 20(!)gb, but the recommended size is 8gb. Also I have 8gb of RAM. I have this game on disk D, and disk C is SSD(128gb).
Win 8.1, I5-4200H, GTX765M
It's a windows 8.1 problem on notebooks. Your windows is problably using way too much of your ram. I solved this issue by manually setting the # of ram i wanted the windows to use when i had windows 8. Honestly i dont advise using windows 8.1 or windows 8 on a notebook.
Now back to your issue :
Dont let windows manually set the pagefile size or hibernate file ( if you are not using it ).
In order to change that go to :
Windows > System > Advanced settings > Performance.
PS: You should clear your pagefile once in a while in case your system is not doing on its own or even disable. Windows was suposed to disable pagefile on its own as soon as you connected that SSD. Either set to use the SSD or disable if you want.
There's also a lot of issues (drivers related ) and that's one of the reasons i'm using windows 7 now. Mate you're gonna run on so many problem with this windows tha you'll end up wasting 1h fixing a problem just to see two new ones poping out.
I have no issue with my rig (i7 16GB of ram and GTX 675M) also on windows 8.1. My little brother also has no issue with an i7 with 8 GB of ram and a GTX 740M (both on windows 8.1). Only issue my brother had was conflicting sound drivers, but you need to see what is running at the same time as rust because I bet its a program in the background that is crewing up your ram.
Windows 8 = garbage (always skip a windows version)
I run rust with 4gigs of RAM on win 7 no problem.
8.1 is far from garbage. Boots and runs faster than Win 7.

He's not talking about being fast or not. He's talking about the # of issues that windows 8.1 has.

Well he should have specified then. Win8 is not garbage =)
honestly other then getting used to a new GUI (which 8.1 nearly lets me due away with and 8.2 will let me due away with it) I have little to no issues with 8 other then it running with about 4 GB of ram at idle but ram is cheap (relatively) at this point. i personally would not run 8 on a machine with less then 8 GB of ram but this is all off topic.
to op: you need to see what else is running because rust and windows on their own will not crew up 8 GB of DDR3 ram
You guys are missing the point here.. windows 8 and windows 8.1 has issue with notebooks mostly because of drivers.
In almost 100% of the cases you'll have to do a full fresh install on windows 8.1+ and download every single driver from manufacter. Windows 8 is problably good on pc's but its not worth yet for notebooks. Way too many issues :|.
You guys have no idea how hard it is to make your graphic card work properly using a notebook on windows 8+.
1 broken driver = conflict = memory leak = memory issues = shitstorm of problems to fix :(.
The problem with windows 8 is it is a jack of all trades, master of none. Problems will arise.
I run 8.1 on a notebook and never had this problem. Can you link to a tech write up about this supposed issue T.P.
Per the OP's issue at hand have your task manager up to see how much memory you have free going before hand. You might have a misbehaving background program.
20gb is WAY overkill for a pagefile it can be slowing down your system accessing it. You really dont need much more than a gig if that. Pagefiles are really from the days when there wasn't enough ram to go around for the OS. I have it mostly off, with just 300MB so it can write a dumpfile if the system crashes.
