Comments on Vista RC1....
Now imagine having to search for those same files one by one by one by one if needed. It's just much easier to have an index that rebuilds itself periodically. (I'm still waiting for motherboards with ReadyBoost right on the board, or hybrid drives with that built in. That'll make a big difference.

How is the Windows Vista Deframent Tool?
Two, when memory truly is needed, and only then, will the kernel take my dormant app out of RAM. Until then, the app is available very quickly. And no one vendor's application holds onto system resources just so it can pretend to load faster. -- The dark ages were caused by the Y1K problem.

Readyboost Question
When I turned the system off, I removed the flash drive and, later, when I reinserted it I was told that it needed to be formatted - but the format utility reported that it was unable to complete the operation. I tried it on an alternative computer and it reported the same. So it seems that ReadyBoost has killed my

Unauthorized credit card use
When needed, the memory is immediately released for use. Depending on how much memory you have determines the performance boost you get. The closer you are to 2 GB to start, the less Ready Boost seems to help. Memory not in use is wasted memory. Do you see any performance increase? Look beyond just the numbers

With '98 it was 512MB, XP needed 1GB and Vista's sweet spot is 2GB. The difference with Vista is that you can employ the new Ready Boost feature to up the effective RAM.

Is ReadyBoost meant to work this way :-/ Is this a Flaw in Vista or like Microsoft is doing making Flaws as Features. Is this also a feature?? The mystery continues. to get more performance out of Vista applications. I would think if Vista was running properly, this would not be needed. What am I missing here ?

I loaded the two patches and installed a fast 2GB SD card for the sake of ReadyBoost, but detected no obvious/immediate improvement. After boot, I use little TLB scripts to load whatever app combinations are needed for the tasks at hand - and they definitely settle down more quickly than before.

Name a good Vista feature that goes beyond what's in Tiger.
I would like to either turn Ready Boost off or find out how to reconfigure it to use less of the drive. Just FYI..... No one's mentioned it "yet" however I've seen people suggest to just turn off the ReadyBoost service, system wide, if it's not needed. This is actually not recommend as the ReadyBoost service does

Enhanced memory performance courtesy of readyboost and fastfetch And I bet at least 0.0000003% of the Vista users use this :) All Vista users use fastfetch, then invert selection and send that to the trash.

moving page file to USB 2.0 flashdrive?
In addition to persistent notification and the disabling of non-critical updates, WGA also disables Windows Aero, Windows Defender, and ReadyBoost. According to Microsoft themselves, it is legal to run Microsoft Windows without WGA [citation needed]. However, since non-critical Windows updates are not presented

ReadyBoost/move page file to HD
Look for file labeled <Drive Letter>:\ReadyBoost.sfcache. Thanks. Exactly what I needed. As I suspected, it had stopped working, for Readyboost purposes. The optimization settings for the drive had gotten changed to optimized for quick removal. Set that way, the performance is too low to enable it for Readyboost.

The Vista Challenge..
But I remember in embedded controllers I worked with, I could switch between them if needed. Also, I remember that each buss runs asynchronously .. independent of each other ... meaning, code can look at one ... and then look at the other. So the best I can do with that is the G3 test. G3 runs better in 4 gigs of

windows vista is now in your hand
The blogs you refer to are interesting, and the USB flash drive I have tested does meet all the performance requirements that are needed for a flash drive to work properly under Vista. It has such a feature (called ReadyBoost). Some USB Flash drives are faster than others, for this purpose. some links:

But since you insist... the hardware needed for vista to "run" is: a 100 core CPU Solid state hard disk drives A graphic adaptor that is dipped in to liquid All it has is superfetch and that stupid readyboost that try to drag the immense bloat of vista, so it wont be slower than a turtle with arthritis!
