Re: Registry Corruption

Try to reduce the latency time to 1 hour (3600 seconds). Anyway this seems to be a bug. 1 day is alot of time even with a SSD.

Re: Getting "Failed to start cache!"

@Ivrak: Probably this is a matter of available RAM: your machine has not enough mem available for this cachesize *and* blocksize. The smaller the block size is, the more RAM is required for cache tag. How much RAM has your machine installed, is available before starting Primocache? And how much do y...

Re: fancycache stopped working

Hi,

no, you sucks ;-) . UN-install any FC releases *and* reboot. Then install latest beta of FC *and* reboot. After this FC will work.

Re: [2012-02-27] FancyCache Beta 0.7.2 published

Q: How effective is Intels approach in detecting real large files operations belonging to the same file, as a large file is probably fragmented resulting in a couple of larger and smaller sequential operations?

Re: Overkill?

Not necessarily. At best the cache block size is the same as the cluster size of the filesystem. The default cluster size of NTFS is 4096 Bytes (4KB). But, on large volumes 8KB or more is also possible. Check e.g. with powershell on every logical disk (WIN7: admin rights required): fsutil fsinfo ntf...

Re: [2012-02-27] FancyCache Beta 0.7.2 published

@onder, your assumption is not true. On the level of operating of FC (block level filter driver) there is no information of the file that might be written or read, FC deals only with numbered "data blocks" relative to the partitions 1st data block or disks 1st data block. Maybe FC knows so...

Re: Overkill?

Use FCs default values, at next I would taken into account using the "write-only" instead of "read/write" cache configuration for every drive.
