Windows 2003 Memory Controller On XP?

Recommended Posts

Several things you said are false. First, memory doesn't fragment, since only static data does. Also improving memory management might've meant optimizing it for server use.

Memory used to fragment - ever had a stack/heap collision on a program that only used 20MB of ram out of 512? The Linux machines that we've got at UBC have done that to me a couple of times. NT Memory Management is much better, and as a result, we don't have to worry about that. They call it Random Access Memory for a reason. ;)

hoak is definately on the right track... :)

EDIT: That is when it comes to the differences XP/2K3 regarding memorymanagement and so on....

As for that PowerJaddaJadda...it's just a bunch of regtweaks...and a lot of them "generic" .

Just needed to point that out after reading the first post properly.. ;)

But for those interested in XP POWER LiTE 1.74 what ever it might be here's all the information I have... 

it's a compressed installer that contains:

· NTDETECT.COM 47Kb

· NDLDR 272Kb

· four "reg" files: 1.reg, 64.reg, 128.reg, 256.reg, 512.reg

· power.bat

The contents of the text files are as follows:

POWER.BAT

Looking it over, I thought, big deal - just removes useless crap.

Shuts down indexing service, drive performance monitoring, removes cache's and defrags the HD. I didn't think that the replacement of the boot code would do much. Based on comments elsewhere on MSFN, I thought I would do a test on

my home machine. It has always been slow booting.

WOW.

Measuring (one test only) the boot time from power-on to desktop -WITH NO HOURGLASS - the before and after time decreased by a little over 20 seconds.

Doesn't seem like much to say 20 sec, but it sure FEELS like a lot when you are waiting to begin.

I already keep my box defraged with several diff pgm's and have ample space, and disabling zip folder viewing seems stupid, so the rest of the bat (badly written)

is of no interest to me.

Think I will look thru the reg files again, though.

Interesting thread....I wish I had soemthing to add at the moment...but I think hoak is right that 2k3 has some improvments and memory optimizations that make it a slight bit faster and way more robust than XP from what reviews and so on that I have read. I am sure that XP can be emulated to follow what was done in 2k3 for similar improvements since 2k3 is based off of XP with SP1 and Longhorn being based off of 2k3 with SP1...one thing is for sure though...nuhl is going to be really busy with an nLite version of Longhorn to remove all the crap that MS is putting into it...unless I see Longhorn is faster, and improved all ways around, I think I am gonna stick with my investment in XP.

Welcome :hello:

I am author Windows XP POWER LiTE. I come from Poland and this is my Project :yes:

I copy 2 fieles {NTLDR and NTDETECT.COM} from Windows 2k3 server (Non-SP) install CD and moded for Windows XP.

This 2 fieles is loader, system working fine in new memory controler. But this controler + OverClocking Memory is not good idea / system freeze :blushing: .

Aha! Glad the Author finally discovered this thread and a lot of other people interested in what he's doing! Glad you're here Piterniel! I too look forward to an English version of your program!

:)

When you tested loading Word up with and without the memory controller, did you flush the prefetch each time? Otherwise, after it loads into prefetch that would affect your results and cause the program to load up faster.
