Afternoon
Downloaded and installed the latest beta and have 2 bugs to report:-
1. The cache dosent seem to be populatuing, the gui is showing the cache is building, but it hasnt moved passed 0% in 2 days.
2. I didnt notice this till I started playing half life2(as the game was stuttering badly) came out of the game and found that one of my core (E6600) was running at 50%, the affending task was eboost service which I Promtly killed so i could continue my game.
Do you guys need me to fill in my system specs again, or will the info I provided when I registered be adequate .

During the installation process you can receive the following error message box:
This error indicates that the eBoostr system driver failed to install.
Reasons
This can happen if you did not reboot your computer since previous uninstalling of the product. We are having a bug in the uninstall procedure (both BETA 1 and BETA 2) that does not ask you to reboot after the uninstall. You have to reboot your computer manually after the uninstall, and you MUST reboot it if you are going to install the eBoostr again.
Resolution
If you receive this error, then please reboot computer and repeat the installation of the product one more time. Everything should be installed correctly in this case.

I’ve installed the beta 2 on my old pc (PIII 450MHz, 64+128 MBRam) and I get an error in the beginning phase, but the installation goes away.
The Service isn’t installed so I’ve registered the file (eboostrsvc.exe) as service with srvintw and I’ve started it manually but, when I add a cache file it isn’t builded and in menu the “Stop/Restart caching” is disabled so cache aren’t filled.

i’ve tested the 1st beta and here is my impressions:
i’ve used a sd card (sandisk ultra II 1 GB) with a slow reader (2,45 on speed check) and i still noticed an increase of overall performance while playing the game “Rise of Legends”. now i will buy a faster reader and try again with the new beta.
i’ve also used in my tests a sandisk cruzer micro (256 mb) and an ipod nano (2 gb – faster than the sd card).
here are some ideas for the program:
in the cache size selection may be useful add at the actual numeric chooser also a % chooser (ex. 25%,50%,75%,max);
also may be useful an option to change the amount of MB on a device already set, without removing and building the cache again.
i will start new performances tests soon.
my notebook is an asus a6va-q021h 1,7 ghz, 512mb of ram, 80gb hd, ati x700 with 128ram + 128mb shared with the central ram.
PS
i erroneously add this post under “performance test plan”. sorry for the inconvenience

Just a small thing, when you install beta2, program ask you to upgrade, and thats fine. But it doesn’t recognize the path of previous version (beta1).

I’ve get a watch to cache content
I’ve seen some files surely accessed (like exe, dll, sys, etc)
I’ve seen some files probably accessed by launched application (like dll, ttf, fon, config, etc)
But I’ve seen some files surely NOT accessed during from eboostr’s installation (some lnk, exe, archived text files)
So… why this lasts files are inserted in cache???

I ran the speed check program that comes with Beta 2 on both Firefox and MS Word. I ran each test 5 times. I’m not sure what is being measured since I could not work in either program when the speed check ran. I need a measure of time saved while I am actually working. The times seemed impressive: 1.6 for Word and 1.9 for Firefox. But am I saving time when I open a program or when I use a program? Other feedback seems to indicate that being the case.
Also, when I look at the contents of the cache, what exactly am I looking at? Why these programs and services?
Thanks

Is there a way to implement a counter in “show cache content”?
It could be nice to know if a file is used often or if another file has NEVER been used.
In the case you will add a way to unload a specific file from the cache, the counter can help to remove useless files.
Another point is to conver hex size in a decimal human readable value

Downloaded and installed Beta 1, and I’m very impressed so far! I’ve tried every speed “boosting” caching app out there (O&O Cache, Cacheman, CacheXP, and countless others). Eboostr outshines them all and provides very noticeable speed improvements. No problems at all so far with on a Intel Celeron Mobile (1 GHz) laptop with 1GB of Ram, using an OCZ Rally 1gig USB flash drive (960 mb cache) and a 512 mb PNY Sd card (488 mb cache). On to Beta 2! Nice work, team!
