Refreshing a pagefile size is really a question for Microsoft rather than here.
The page file is used for virtual memory, and if it is increasing as you say then you are probably trying to run too much at the same time. So the answer is to use less memory.
Try running fewer programs at the same time, and make sure your code is written efficiently.
For example, avoid reading a whole file into an array unless you really have to. Break-up monolithic code into subroutines using lexical (my) variables. Benchmark and profile your code to find the areas using the most memory and work on those.
Without specific examples we cannot give anything other than general (and obvious) comments like this.
