Great but not amazing.
I’ve submitted my testing via the forms. Just wanted to comment here about over all performance. I’m on a computer attached to a domain running antivirus services, daemon ware and has some other startup services. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear there is a performance boost to system startup. I’m guessing this has to do with the fact that eboostr is a service it’s self and a lot of service startup is processor/memory bound and not so much and issue of hdd read/write. I have noticed that programs using .net and other windows based content(fonts, libs etc.) see the biggest performance increase. Our service center call tracking application used to take 45 seconds to startup and now it takes barely 15. On the other hand things like inkscape and firefox don’t seem to see as much of a performance boost as they tend to use gtk components that arn’t as tightly linked to windows resources. Is there something in the works to help performance for these sort of applications as well? Possibly a profile manager to let the user adjust what gets cached and where the performance is seen? I use a lot of open source windows apps and quite a few if not all use the windows GTK packages. Thanks for the consideration!

As you continue to use your favorite programs eBoostr updates the files use statistics and the cache file will be rebuild accordingly. The initial cache file is built upon the stats that is gathered with a single boot (if you immediately add the cache device and builds the cache upon installation), that is why most of the system files, fonts, libs are cached.
Just use the product for a day or two and you will see the difference.
