Slow boot, after installing eBoostr 3.0, Beta build 471.

Hi, …

Slow boot, after installing eBoostr 3.0, Beta build 471.

Windows XP SP3 x86, French Canada, 4 gig ram.
I have made a 1 gig cache (inside eBoostr) in memory.

When eBoostr is installed, and after each reboot = then i see the windows startup logo progressbar, it make about 30 times, the left to right progress bar.

= it mean about 30 seconds to enter in windows, after the boot logo. (when eBoostr is running)

Before install or after deinstall, eBoostr made about 7 times , the left to right progress bar.

= it mean about 7 seconds to enter in windows, after the boot logo. (when eBoostr is not running)

————————————————————————————-

Also, for the moment only 6% of the cache is full, [inside a eBoostr, 1024 meg Ram Cache]. = (even if i rebuild the cache, it dont go to full 100%) = Is this normal ???

————————————————————————————-

Also, what is the “eBoostr energy saver option” do when enabled ? Does it is related to save Laptop battery when i create and use, a cache disk inside eBoostr?

    i had the same as you, in my case the problem was, that the eboostr cache file which was stored on the hdd was very fragmented. check your eboostr.dat for fragmentation, with the free tool “defraggler” for example. with this tool you can also defragment single files. since my eboostr.dat isn’t fragmented, startup is working like usual.

    My start-up time hasnt changed with build 471. Beside, defraggler seems to be good idea….Will try it later….

    That’s why I requested to allocate eboostr.dat in contiguous area. For me, it is allocated in more than 1000 fragments and everything slows down. Good tip to use Defraggler. Now eboostr.dat occupies only one fragment and computer is much more faster.

    Is there any way that I can access previous beta builds, I find my PC slower since updating to build 471. I should have thought about it and kept the older ones.

    Any help?
