Just got a new SSD, not the fastest, its a Apple branded Toshiba 512GB drive.

Fancycache can certainly help performance, but, it seems irratic and the results are not always repeatable.

I use a deferred write time of 60 seconds, Averaging Write Amount and Release After Write are ticked.

I have found using Invisible Memory, which is wasted quite often on a 32bit Windows install, and setting up a Level 2 cache to use it all helps a lot, but which algorithm is best, i think MBU is best from tests i have done, does anybody know?

Why are you using Averaging Write Amount and Release After Write?

I thought Averaging Write Amount throttled writes to avoid unresponsive HDDs? (Not a problem with most SSDs) And Release After Write negates the benefits of having repeat reads/writes to the same block/file all hitting the cache?

I do think MBU is best. I use a Deferred Write Time of 60 seconds on my HDDs.

My ssd has a slow write speeds, so actually Averaging writes seems to help
