Am i stupid for never having tried this before?
i turned off Windows Virtual Memory the other day cause i was tired of cached ram being loaded cause i leave my browser sitting in the background for 5 minutes then having to wait 15 seconds as it reloads everything..

suddenly my computer feels so much faster.. anyone else try turning off their Virtual RAM? (provided you have enough physical ram that is)

well it makes a biiiig difference if you leave apps in the background for while then call em back.

i often leave photoshop running when i'm not using it, then when i call it back it takes like 45 seconds to load it back into ram..
