I use Primocache on my OS drive (It's pcie nvme SSD).
I have configured L1 cache.
Does it make sense to use same drive as L2 cache too? Will it speed up the boot or search or anything else?
I also have another SSD (slightly slower this OS SSD). Does it make sense to use it as L2 cache?

Re: PrimoCache seem to crash PC since updating to Windows 2004
I recently upgraded my RAM and re-installed PrimoCache. No issues since (3 days). I guess it was triggered by hitting 100% RAM earlier.

PrimoCache seem to crash PC since updating to Windows 2004
I am 90% sure that PrimoCache is the culprit here. It stopped when I uninstalled PrimoCache and started happening again after I install it, and the issue is fixed again after I uninstalled it. What happens is when I am trying to work on my PC, it will randomly freeze including mouse pointer, audio, ...

Re: Try to use free RAM whenever it's available dynamically
Ok cool. I see this feature has been requested before too (https://forum.romexsoftware.com/en-us/v ... =35&t=4893). So I will hope it gets a priority someday

Re: Try to use free RAM whenever it's available dynamically
I started with 256 MB of RAM in my first PC and currently have 32 GB of RAM. I have never seen Chrome crash because there is only 8 GB RAM left. 8 GB is still a ridiculously high RAM and a lot of Windows 10 laptops come with only 8 GB of RAM. But I agree it's a slightly dangerous operation. But I st...

Re: Prioritize cache based on internal database of most frequently accessed data
Oh. That's great then. I didn't realize it's already happening in the background.

Prioritize cache based on internal database of most frequently accessed data
Supposed I have associated 4 GB of RAM with PrimoCache and it's full now. From my understanding, it currently stops caching new data completely. It would be better if it's smart here. If it sees some data in the cache is never accessed again, and some data outside cache is accessed often, it should ...

Try to use free RAM whenever it's available dynamically
Right now, I have 15 GB of free RAM available. It would be great if PrimoCache consumes most of it automatically. Suppose later I run several applications and have limited RAM available, it should automatically release some of the RAM from the cache to make it available for other programs. Maybe a s...
