Health Monitor Warning for Memory

We were looking at the Health Monitor just now, and saw a warning under
Memory. The name is, "Page Faults/sec >200". And the comment is, "If a large
number of page faults are happening per second, you may have a memory
bottleneck occurring. However, before you add more memory make sure that the
memory bottleneck is not the caused by an inefficient application. Check Task
Manager and see what the memory usage is and what applications are using all
the memory. Starting and stopping some of these services may free up some
memory in the short term." What should we do?
