When you run the speed test, the hit ratio starts to climb. Surely this indicator is only meant to measure the proportion of cache to disk hits you're getting when you're actually using your computer for stuff not testing out eboostr? Just a thought ;) </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/lost-cache-when-used-with-ramdisk#post-1291 Sat, 03 Apr 2010 20:28:07 +0000 cuverin 1291@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>I am using 64bit windows 7 with 6G of memory, superspeed ramdisk plus, and eboostr.<br /> I assigned 1.5G of ramdisk made by superspeed ramdisk and use 500mb of the for temporary internet files and 1G for eboostr cache.<br /> Although this is not recommended way of using eboostr but I wanted this because I wanted to make the number of direct access to memory as small as possible.<br /> When I reboot the computer, sometimes eboostr seems to start earlier than ramdisk appeared on the system and then eboostr ended up with no cache file.<br /> I can understand the case and don't mind if I need to create cache file whenever I reboot the machine, but the problem is that this happens not always which means order of eboostr or ramdisk sometimes switched.<br /> I don't think it is a big problem nor it is your fault, but I just wanted to let you know that this kind of missing eboostr cache file happens when used with ramdisk softwares.<br /> Thank you </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/eboostr-and-restarting#post-1009 Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:30:40 +0000 jujdred 1009@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>When I log off of windows with eBoostr running with cache settings in RAMDisk and USB Flash drives, upon restart both disks are shown as full to the max and inaccessible and unavailable to eBoostr or any other system app until I format them again. </p> <p>I have shown that by disabling eBoostr prior to restarting can prevent this, but is inconvenient. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/japanese-translation-wrongsmall-trouble#post-688 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:19:59 +0000 shigy21 688@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>Please forgive the use of Japanese for convenience' sake.<br /> A Japanese translation of the control panel seems to be wrong.<br /> 1.Select the device.<br /> 2.Display the context menu by right-clicking.<br /> Here, I think that "削除する" is a mistake, and "取り外す"("Eject" in English) is appropriate.</p> <p>Thanks. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/big-for-16-gb-cache-fill#post-1103 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 06:03:36 +0000 AMG 1103@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>Hello</p> <p>I have setting to my Drive 16 GB for cache and see ---&gt; Cache fill: 1073741795% not 1-100% !!! </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/still-issues-with-truecrypt#post-948 Mon, 04 Jan 2010 06:50:07 +0000 interfasys 948@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>I either have to disable eBoostr or add Truecrypt to the exclusion list if I want to be able to mount encrypted drives, otherwise Truecrypt will freeze </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/cache-file-location-for-system-memory-device#post-1197 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 06:53:27 +0000 Stevvie 1197@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>I've just removed all my cache drives to start again and noticed that I can only select my main hardrive C: for the Cache file location for the system memory.

I have an older 4-drive RAID SSD Array. When I run ATTO on it, starting at 16KB I get read speeds of 92MB/sec on up to as high 494MB/sec at 8192K transfer size, yet eBoostr reports only 56MB/sec transfer rate, which is just plain wrong. Even a single SSD drive from that array could kick out a sustained read of over 100MB/sec.</p> <p>What is going on? Is eBoostr using a very small block size in it's testing? I also have an Acard RAM drive that is being reported at 115MB/sec., yet I can easily get 220+ MB/sec sustained reads when transferring digital video files between in and a Gigabyte iRam Drive, so I know it's way faster than eBoostr is reporting. It's also saying the iRam drive is about 50-70MB/sec slower than I can read from it with other files.</p> <p>It seems this latest iteration of eBoostr is failing to take advantage of what my RAM drive and SSD RAID 0 array can offer, at least relative to ATTO and my anecdotal testing of read speeds. Even if Eboostr is using tiny files, a RAM drive should not care less, even if an SSD array did due to flash block size, etc.</p> <p>Any thoughts?</p> <p>How exactly does eBoost compute read/transfer speeds when it reports them? It's certainly not taking advantage of what my drives can offer. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/cache-fill-displays-impossible-percentage#post-920 Tue, 15 Dec 2009 07:40:59 +0000 UnityBeing 920@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>So this is my first time posting on this forum for an amazing program called eBoostr. I'm on a Vista Ultimate 32bit with latest service pack. </p> <p>My first time encountering a bug in the beta, the Cache Fill for both external and internal HDD displays a very long percentage.. for example in one of the HDD that has an allocated size of 15gigs it shows a cache fill of 1145324558% and the other HDD has also the same percentage problem. I removed the HDD from the program and deleted the EBOOSTR folders on both of them and still the problem persists. </p> <p>I don't want to uninstall and reinstall because of losing the settings, like excluded list and applications priority list.. is there a way of backing up this info before I try to reinstall? </p> <p>thank you and I appreciate this program as it has changed my experience with my toshiba qosmio, I am very much considering in buying a copy of this great program too.</p> <p>feedback is much appreciated! </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/ati-hypermemory-bios-memory-remapping-and-eboostr-unmanaged-memory#post-931 Fri, 25 Dec 2009 10:23:05 +0000 Savage1701 931@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>OK, not a bug or anything against eBoostr. I have used ATI 4650 and 4670 HyperMemory PCIe x16 2.0 cards (512MB and 1GB onboard, respectively) on a 6GB installed memory, 32-bit XP Pro SP3 test system to check on accessing and using unmanaged memory with eBoostr.</p> <p>My Asus P5Q-E allows BIOS remapping above the 4GB limit for graphics cards. I suggest turning this off as eBoostr and any HyperMemory card seem to fight for that memory, the net result being ATI usually loses, and then in a dual-screen situation you end up without enough memory for your ATI card and it kicks your resolution down. I also enabled the 15MB Graphics Hole, but I'm thinking it more has to do with the memory remapping feature as I can reproduce the issue at will that way. My guess is this would not happen if you are just running a single monitor.</p> <p>Again, not any problem with eBoostr. I need the HyperMemory cards for their low power draw. I'm not a gamer, but use my cards for business and Blu-Ray and such, otherwise I would just use a 2-slot version with enough memory onboard and/or a card with a 4 or 6 pin aux. power connector. I have an HTPC system using a 4670 2-slot solution. It is not a HyperMemory product and eBoostr has no issues accessing unmanaged memory on that system, which runs 32-bit Vista. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/vista-x64-crashes#post-841 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 05:56:42 +0000 tolisbak 841@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>If it is enabled, Version 4.0.0.543 makes my system crash after logging in.
