System Specs

windows has its own disk cache which works great and has dynamic size. i fail to see the point of allocating a ramdisk that preloads data from disk, so it goes to disk cache first, then into the ram disk, then is stored in both ram disk and disk cache.

essentially you are wasting some main memory, but given current ram pricing, users have done worse things with their money
