Re: Cache warming utility?

@horizon, yes, we are now starting to support file-related features. Sorry for the slow progress as we have many tasks to do. Awesome, good to know... Other than this... I believe, the key is to find the good use cases in enterprise area... There, on the desktops, virtual desktops, servers the smal...

Just checking, if cache warming capabilities are still on v4 roadmap... somewhere. ;)

Thanks. How does it work? Or is there any article on it? (Apart from one I linked... as L2 cache does not make sense in VDI scenarios.)

Logon process optimization

Hi, There could be helping a feature that pre-populates cache by blocks needed during the logon process. (=blocks required during + say 5 minutes after the logon). There are 2 use cases: 1. For nonVDI/normal scenario: The cache is be pre-populated opportunistically on the background of the logon dia...

Almost. It's not only dynamic, but also perfectly seamless from disk capacity perspective, potentially using your SSD to the max... Costing you some L2 performance, of course... :)

How it looks like: 1. To OS (resp. disk ...
