I've setup a basic read-only cache and noticed a puzzling fenomena:
Total writes: 185.9 Mb
Total reads: 1.5 Gb
L2Storage writes: 2.5 Gb
2.5-1.5-0.19=0.8 Gb of amplified writes.Why?
Both block and sector size are 64kb on ntfs volume on Win7x64sp1

For better performance, PrimoCache may store whole block or adjacent blocks to l2 cache even currently system only reads a part of a block. So usually "L2 Write" will be larger than "Total Reads" + "Total Writes".
