Subject: Please help: Reboot between tests is not helping

Go up one level in this thread


I am trying to determine TB cache guidance for settings under Windows. This
started because when I began using the 5 piece TB's on my laptop the disk could
not hack it. I increased the cache setting from 8mb to 128mb as I had the ram
available in the hope of improving things. Things appeared to get a lot worse -
hence my original experiment.

However results are not consistent if I repeat the experiment. I decided to
re-boot between to get consistent results and tested first with the same cache
settings (Turned on the machine ran the test restarted and re-ran). However even
that does not help see logs in seperate posts.

Has anybody already done this experiment under windows or can they advise on a
method that will provide consistent results. Should I search to a depth rather
than for a specific time? would I be better using a different engine for the TB
test (I have Tiger 15 as well?)

Thanks

Shaun
