Overview
Memory Optimizer WinRamTurbo releases allocated memory that has been fragmented and left behind once an application has been shutdown which eliminates trash build up, keeps memory free and clean and ends inefficient or sporadic memory access as seen when switching among the different concurrent running applications. File and Disk Cache Optimizer WinRamTurbo optimizes the file and disk cache to allow sustained rapid access of cached data. A disk cache (also called Virtual Cache or just simply vcache in Win95/98/ME) is important for improving hard disk performance. This is because the disk cache caches or stores data from the hard disk in the much faster RAM so that if a program requires that piece of data, it can just access the disk cache for it, instead of loading from the hard disk. The disk cache can also read ahead by copying more data than what the program asked for in the assumption that the following consecutive data segment will be needed next. These are some of the methods employed by the disk cache to improve your hard disk's performance. By default, Win95/98/ME grabs most of the unused RAM at bootup to use as disk cache. Then, it is supposed to release the RAM used for the dynamic disk cache when a program requires it. This is a rather fine idea as the unused RAM is better utilized as a disk cache rather than just left there. Performance Booster WinRamTurbo supercharges your system throughput. Memory is the main performance problem with Windows operating systems. Running out of RAM or inefficient use of memory slows your system down to a crawl, especially after surfing the Internet for extended periods of time! WinRamTurbo reduces General Protection Fault (GPF)/Page Fault errors, sometimes referred to as the "Blue Screen of Death", which would normally cause system crashes, rebooting, and loss of data, if memory was not properly optimized! Can WinRamTurbo Help Me? The answer is YES if you run Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000/XP and meet the minimum system requirements! Your mileage will vary to what degree of performance you can expect, of course, due to the various computer system configurations, but you can expect an improvement from your overall system by utilizing WinRamTurbo on your computer if you meet the minimum System Requirements above! WinRamTurbo has been specifically designed to be very user friendly in assisting you in obtaining a reasonable performance improvement. You need not be a computer expert to effectively install or use this excellent product. To achieve the BEST optimization possible out of your computer, you may want to experiment with other available techniques of computer tweaking and adjusting from our page! What Slows Down Windows? Misbehaved Applications Many of today's applications have undiscovered programming errors left in the compiled version of the released program. Several of these errors will leave an amount of memory allocated (memory leaks), even if it is not required any more. Using Large Programming Libraries Programs that use OLE libraries fall into this category. Unfortunately, the memory is used even if the program doesnt really need it. Sometimes a library is loaded, just to provide a few functions. Windows holds files in RAM long after they are no longer needed. Copying Large Files If you have copied several large files with File Explorer, then you have probably noticed how Windows gets bogged down. Many of the previously copied files have left large images cached in RAM without having that same memory freed up after completing the copying process. |
