| | Re: Does Vista Beta 2 run better after time? Yes, it (Vista) still employs Prefetching and Layout.Ini which are components of XP. In Vista there is an enhanced version of the process called SuperFetch. Also, Vista can utilize Flash Memory devices to function as additional physical RAM. However, I'm not sure the process is fully functional in Beta #2.

| | Re: Does Vista Beta 2 run better after time? I'm sure that relates to the indexing service. Once everything is scanned and indexed the computer will speed up. -Trevor "BoDEAN" <BoDEAN@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E539F4A1-F0A6-4E6B-B596-C28746DA71E7@microsoft.com... > Hear rumors the longer you run vista (2+ days) the better it runs because > of > the time it takes to adjust and configure your system. > > ANy truth to this? |

| | Re: Does Vista Beta 2 run better after time? It acts like an extension of the Virtual Memory pool. Superfetch preloads certain code which allows faster access. Since Flash is faster than physical drives - using Flash as part of Virtual memory should result in quicker performance. It's not a substitute for more physical RAM but with Flash Memory prices, having a 512-Meg module installed on a Vista PC might help a bit.
