Have you tried overclockers.co.uk?

my sammy 64gb still running fine
-
-
and again, my sammy don't do that
samsung was thinking about that stuff way before they sent them to stores, and that is why samsung ssd-s were, well, at first, the only drives that were sold in, let's say, dell PC-s
sammy simply kick

FYI, I am back to System Managed Page File
So, I guess the only thing (tweak) we can really agree on is to turn off DEFRAG
-
just a quick note: he talks about vista. no one at microsoft uses or cares about xp anymore
and xp memory management is known to be bad, and the pagefile there can really harm your user experience..
as said, xp is notoriously bad at memory management. vista improved by much, win7 again.
and you have had paging that negatively affected your experience? having some paging does not hurt. having paging that hurts, hurts.. (wow, now if that isn't obvious).
i've never yet seen in tons of very varying vista installations and tons of different usecases ANY case where the page file was the reason of slow performance. never. i'd like to see an example where it differs in the real world.
oh so you're smarter than me. that hurts. and in reality: if you're so smart, then do what ever you want. but don't promote it as a general solution that "is better" because it isn't a general solution that is better. i agree it may be better in some special cases, and i agree that you may mean it's better in your case. but anyone who knows that, knows how to do it as well. anyone else, just teach them "use the default" because the default is the best generic solution that always works good.
letting the os manage it means any app will always get "enough ram" even in some chaotic worst cases. so it's absolutely failsafe (as long as your disk isn't full). the ssd handles the writes in it's own way anyways. so yes, doing a pagefile defrag doesn't help much
and the most important lesson: get over your believe that you always know better, or that the thing you know better actually did anything at all. as said, give me a simple reproducable example, where the pagefile hurts. on an ssd. a real world example.
and that was it so far
*joking*btw, i'm smarter than you anyways.. hrr hrr (i configure my system so that it can't crash.. that is one form of 'smarter' at least
).*/joking*

Didn't someone say it's on the label of the drive, too?
Off-the-off-topic (haha) newegg has OCZ agility and the 120gb is about $30-40 more than the falcon (~$300). I thought the 120gb was only supposed to be $250??? What's up with that!? guess i'll keep waiting for the G3
-
hm. does my drive label update when i do a firmware update? but yes, it shouls show the first firmware that was on the drive. but i can't check, because screwing my notebook again? no thanks..
ocz agilty which one is that again? they have just too much products out, terrible
-
-
I would wish to get the agility and see what is actually in it.
But here they are selling at apprx 480USD for the 120gb.
-

i guess the agility are just old ocz cores recollected, and with the jmicron replaced by an indilinx they put all the RMA to good use
i do perfectly understand what they ment. i just wanted to show what their numbers really mean. 1% of users would be VERY MUCH given the userbase. similar to some services state 99% uptime and people don't realise how much downtime that actually means.
so no, even while the numbers are just made up, they are not even close. not near close.
yes. but that its the better choise then. because a) else it would reserve real ram that could right now be of better use, while the app itself doesn't need it yet, or b) the memory is of low priority as the app doesn't actively use it.
in both cases, the page file doesn't hurt. in case a) it actually does help. uh, oh, a pagefile can mean performance gain!!! wow
all in all, windows evolved now for a lot of years, and it's memory management with it. they have experience from users of all kinds, and test by themselves the system on tens of thousands of systems inhouse. they have studied persons, doctors, that made theoretical assumptions about memory, backed with practical proof. they create servers with it that can scale to huge businesses, sometimes stable at 99.99% or so uptime since years.
nope, i don't touch the pagefile settings. it can't be that one individual at home can come, click the configuration, and tweak it and it just is measurable better afterwards.
i still wait for one who can show me a reproducable realworld test where there is proof, that the pagefile hurts. i have tons of reproducable realworld tests where it helps: everywhere where else the app would have crashed. -
