Compilation times dropped drastically, so I can say I am now more productive than before.” - Peter (Australia) Recently I began using the RAM disk and configured the compilers to emit temporary files along with resulting executable to the RAM disk. “I am a software developer and I always had to wait a long time whenever I compile my projects (using Delphi, Java and C++).SoftPerfect RAM Disk lets you create any number of virtual RAM drives and is only limited by the available memory on your system, and boasting sizes of 3.5GB on 32-bit systems to a whopping UNLIMITED on 64-bit systems! Need to access your virtual RAM data between sessions? Set it up with an associated on-disk image - the virtual RAM drive reads from it once, writes to it once, and all of the read/write work that happens in the middle is VIRTUAL.
You know, all of those little bits that get dumped to your hard drive during an installation, or that get accumulated during web browsing. With SoftPerfect RAM Disk, you can even set up a virtual RAM disk to handle all of those files that Windows and applications use for temporary data storage. What does this mean? Data speeds that far exceed any physical hard disk. SoftPerfect RAM Disk lets you set up disks on your computer that are entirely stored in memory. And yet most of the time, a large portion of your PC's RAM sits unused, calm, cool, and collected, on the sidelines.
As your hard drive fills up, your computer's performance goes down! Little bits of data start getting put into all of the nooks and crannies of available space, resulting in more fragmentation, and making your hard drive work even harder - possibly towards premature failure.
