I defragged my HD with UltimateDefrag, moving high performance files (frequently accessed) to outer tracks, I noticed an increase in speed of boot time, programs and webpage loading,  I then checked the eboostr cache and saw that all the useless files from my D drive which had been cached were gone and only C drive frequently accessed files,    ie:  WINDOWS, DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS, PROGRAM FILES   were now in the cache thereby providing me with the speed increase.

I don’t know why/how this happened,  but defragging my HD has made a big difference in the type of files being cached by eboostr which I believe has resulted in the access speed results reported above.
