High number of Checkpoint pages/sec and memory pressure

Recently I read a blog post on mssqltips.com about memory bottlenecks on SQL Server. In this article I read following:




The following performance counters on SQL Server: Buffer Manager object can also indicate memory pressure:




  • High number of Checkpoint pages/sec

  • High number of Lazy writes/sec

  • High number of Page reads/sec

  • Low Buffer cache hit ratio

  • Low Page Life Expectancy




What caught my attention was that a high number of 'checkpoints pages/sec' can indicate memory pressure.



My understanding was that checkpoints write 'dirty' pages to disk on a regular base to maintain the 'recovery interval' (automatic checkpoints) or 'target recovery time' (indirect checkpoints). So high number of checkpoints indicates a very busy system (=a lot of changes).


Because a checkpoint never removes a page from the buffer cache I don't quite understand how high number of checkpoints/sec can indicate memory pressure. If there is memory pressure I would except to see a high number of 'lazy writes/sec'. The lazy writer removes 'cold pages' from memory, to make place for new pages.
