Compressing data and transferring only the remainder can sometimes be faster than just writing through the uncompressed data. This may not apply to your setup at all, but I found that some old (disk-based) systems actually became faster by installing Stacker. Quote:I threw DOSSHELL 5.0 on it and enabled the task swapper, which appears to use some combination of XMS and/or 386 virtual modeDoes it really swap to XMS? AFAIR, DOSSHELL only swaps to disk, not XMS or EMS. What makes you think it is using 386 virtualization features? (AFAIK, it does not.) Greetings, Matthias -- "Programs are poems for computers." |
