Extra! Extra!, Primocache considered the most wanted or 'persona non grata' by the manufacturers of ssd storage units. xd Native mode has the highest retention possible as it only evicts for the set delay/timing, which makes it especially effective against cyclical writes. Far from the very essence ...

It seems that an explicit function has been leaked from the DirectStorage api: static void DirectStorage() { if (system_uses_primocache()) { Do(); //haha return; } const uint64 min_size = 1099511627776; // minimun nvme size for directstorage (1 TB (bytes)) bool nvme = system_uses_nvme_drv(); if (nvm...

Haha, I had not noticed this thread xD. I agree with the mate that DirectStorage is perhaps the most attractive concept for gamers in this Win11. I am not an expert but I would swear that this new api is not going to change things much, PrimoCache will remain invisible, as long as Windows sees the n...

In an 'optimized' Windows with everything that is not needed deactivated, services, tasks, ..., and by means of soft type 'FolderChangesView', we see that Windows writes are practically reduced to the obligatory fucking event logs/traces and little else (in fact, this Win11 is surprising me, after s...

Like everything in life, there are always several perspectives or scenarios, everything is about 'knowing' your system perfectly. Here, one hour defer-write on system/boot and application partitions, and infinite defer-write on the rest. Larger defer-writes: Pros: - max performance - max efficiency ...

4KB and 32KB L1 cache block size:

Windows 11 (22000.282) | Ryzen 5600X | B550 | Crucial 3800 (16-18-17-36-56) 4x16GB

I have read around although in a very trivial way that the caching software is not compatible with DirectStorage but I think or want to understand that PrimoCache is 'invisible' to Windows I/O subsystem, right?. A cached game with a sequential read of 25GB/s and a random 4KB of 1GB/s should destroy ...

Windows 11 (22000.282), no issues. In fact, all my software and drivers have been perfectly functional, we could say that Win11 is simply a 'revision' of Win10, once 'tuned' and optimized for gaming, this Win11 has improved on just about everything.
