Diskeeper 4.0
Released!
|
It's here! Diskeeper for Windows NT 4.0 has now been released,
with a brand
new technical breakthrough for increased system performance: Paging File
Defragmentation.
The Paging File in Windows NT serves as virtual memory space on the disk,
and is used to swap pages to and from memory to supplement the use of
physical RAM. However, because access to disk-based "memory" is measured
in milliseconds and physical RAM in nanoseconds, the paging file is 100,000 times
slower than RAM and can become the most important performance
bottleneck on a Windows NT system. In addition, a paging file that is
fragmented into multiple fragments - due to being dynamically extended and
reduced in size - can greatly increase the amount of disk I/Os needed and
significantly slow down the opening and closing of applications.
Defragmenting the paging file into a single location not only speeds up
paging performance, but provides more consolidated free space for Diskeeper
to defragment the whole system.
This new feature enhances Diskeeper's position as the leading provider of
Windows NT defragmentation technology. Diskeeper already has
"defragmentation exclusives", such as Directory File Consolidation, unique
and simple network controls, and its hallmark "Set It and Forget It"
functionality.
