eBoostr, now version 4

(1/6) > >>

Curt:
I have just upgraded to the new eBoostr Pro 4. I am certain it has made things happen just a little faster on my 32-bits Vista. Not much, but faster all the same.


Although you may have purchased 4GB of RAM for your system, 32-bit Windows can only use up to 3.25GB. That’s nearly 750MB of memory that is not being used! eBoostr is able to access this “hidden” memory and will put it to work for you and your system.-eBoostr

I used this with great result on a slow-ssd netbook.

nudone:
worth a try - i'd be happy if speeds up the load time of my commonly used programs. i can't say i've noticed the built in ReadyBoost making much difference (it may have even slowed things down for me), though they sound like very similar cache managers.

sajman99:
At $39.99 for the full Pro version, I would hope the "boost" is more than marginal. :-\

So you guys are indicating this isn't smoke and mirrors, but it's in fact a significant performance enhancement? I admit skepticism, but I'm also curious.

justice:
Well it was beneficial for me because the netbook was slow due to harddisk thrashing - basically it creates a cache for frequent harddisk reads/writes. So although windows explorer might already be in the ram - the thumbnails in a photo folder were read from eBoostr. (xp system) You can ask eBoostr anytime to repopulate the cache.
