That's why I said it would be cool to be able to adjust what PrimoCache considers to be "idle". I have been using PrimoCache on an older enterprise-class server with a RAID5 (which can do 600MB/s of sequential write speed) and with some SSDs in it. Regarding using the SSDs as L2 cache I ca...

Wouldn't that be something that could be implemented in PrimoCache? PrimoCache can. You can set L2 cache (SSD cache) to be read-only (100% read which is set by default). And with Defer-Write, you can increase write performance a lot, as well as converting random writing to sequential writing. Cool,...

PrimoCache determines the idle state by checking CPU utilization and disk activities.

it would be very cool to be able to configure those parameters to fine tune what PrimoCache considers being idle!

what is "windows idle"? IMHO it would make sense to flush the buffer to the disk if the target disk is currently idle. idling disks are worthless, we want to keep them busy but not too busy where they start to struggle because of random i/o. if we flush the buffer always when the disk is i...

Hi after thinking about how to eliminate the need for SSDs for chia farming, I came across PrimoCache and registered here to make this post. First of all, very cool software and very good value for price. I wonder why I didn't stumble upon this piece of gold earlier. Regarding chia mining and genera...
