I understand that exFAT overcomes the limitations of FAT32 more efficiently than NTFS, and is therefore preferable for flash devices. Does eBoostr support exFAT, or is exFAT support in the works?
Diskeeper 2009 has a option for SSD (solid state drives) and when this option is enabled it seems to impact the performance of ebooster since usb drives are classified as SSD. Simply turning the option off rectified the slowdown.
Not sure if anyone else has experienced this. I had been running beta 3 build 479 for less than a week on my Compaq Presario desktop – 1GB memory, Windows XP Professional SP3, 1GB Coby Electronics memory stick (new). All of a sudden, applications stopped working today(Internet Explorer, Outlook, etc.). The computer was constantly throwing errors in svchost.exe. After uninstalling eBoostr and rebooting, the problems stopped. It’s like the eBoostr cache was somehow becoming corrupted. Any ideas? Anything I can look at or tweak on my end?
In windows xp professional sp3, during cache rebuilding, if you start to use your computer (keyboard or mouse activity), the cache rebuilding stop.
In windows vista business, during cache rebuilding, even if there is keyboard or mouse activity, caching does not stop.
It seems that in windows vista, eboostr will rebuild cache even though there is keyboard or mouse activity.
I tried to create a cache on my 1 gig flash drive, but it said it had -2,000,000 mb of free space? It still let me create the cache though. Also, how can I get a beta key?
Running eBoostr build 484 on a C2D 2.2GHz laptop w/ 4GB RAM and a 16GB USB flash drive (using the entire drive). eBoostr showed a cache fill of 18%. I rebuilt the cache files and it now shows 12% cache fill. Is this a bug? How do I get the program to build the cache file closer to 100% to make full use of the space on the flash device?
Running Build 484, Vista Ultimate
Actually no news is good news, I have been up for two days runnign Vista Ultimate (upgrade) on 2 gig lexar drive.
Unlike alot of other reports having no problems.
50% increase over no Boost,
35% increase over same drive used as ready boost.
Only feedback is catch is only at 79%, not sure what this means.
Version: 3.0 build 484
No Windows 7 support yey, is there an ETA?
there should be a benchmark test of with and without eboostr working in a difrrent systems,
i would be happy to help with that
When %SystemRoot%\Temp doesn’t exist, eBoostr can’t build cache, eBoostr service is stopped automatically when I click Build cache button
