Re: EWF RAM reg memory usage

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Netpwm,

To minimize EWF RAM Reg usage in general please refer to this tip page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/embedded/community/community/tips/xp/ramewf/default.aspx.

With regards to the IE cache.. One of the approaches that may work for you could be in creating a ram disk (search MSDN for sample
ram disk sources), change IE Cache settings to move the cache to the ram disk
([HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders],"Cache","History","Cookies") and set the CacheLimit
settings for Content/History/Cookies parts of the cache under [HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Cache] key.

This way you don't even have to worry about cleaning up the cache on reboot.

Read more about the reg.settings of IE cache (WinInet actually) here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wcewinet/html/coconwininetregistrykeys.asp


Also please be aware that IE cache implementation on all Windows platforms has currently a few bugs related to the size. E.g., there
may appear some orphan entries in the cache that will not be included in the Cache size calculations. Therefore the CacheLimit
values may not work properly sometimes.
However, with the RAM disk limit you shouldn't be worried about it much.


Another approach would be to have an app running and monitoring the IE cache size and EWF RAM usage.
