User-dependent cache

By Big Muscle | December 5th, 2008 | 10:46 am

I looked at cache viewer and saw there files which were used under different user profile. I think eBoostr should make file usage statistics and create cache for each user profile. It would make the cache more efficient, because when I log in to my account, only my files would be stored in cache.

Only boot files should be cached globally. see http://www.eboostr.com/closedbeta/feedback/boot-process-optimalization/

Thanks.

    If I understand correctly, that will requre full cache rebuild at logon. Am I right?

    No he means you should store an extra parameter, username and when a user logs in, only load those files under that username. However, this should only apply to files in C:\Documents and Settings\ and everything else should be “global”.

    I think such a differentiation makes sense only in case of a RAM cache (other devices have to keep all user dependent files anyway.) In conjunction with “boot files” optimization this may surely free up some RAM. Thank you for these suggestions, we will consider implementing them in future versions.
