Is putting swapfile & temp folder in ramdisk a good idea in Windows 7 64 bit with lots of ram?
- by Tony_Henrich
I want my Windows to run as fast as possible. If I have 12GB ram in Windows 7 64bit, quad core cpu, and all apps fit in memory, will the swap file ever be used for anything? The question is about if its a good idea to put the swap file in a ram disk.
Would a ram disk help in any way or will Windows intelligently use all the available memory for all its work?
I am also thinking of putting the temp folder in a ram disk. I know ram disk is volatile memory and I don't care about its content in it if it gets lost.
