Which OS? And were you already on SSD? Those can both greatly influence the outcome.
- WildParser 6y agoI'm on Windows. Other OS may differ. I experimented a lot with load times - and compared HDD, SSD, RAM-Disk. I wrote a small program that loads everything from a big code-repository into RAM. The first time HDD and SSD and RAM-Disk make a big difference, when reading files a second time the lag of HDD (50s?) almost disappeared completely. Caching kicked in. The RAM-Disk has less initial lag, but also it has to be filled first, so instead of moving everything to RAM-Disk just touching everything so the OS-Caching kicks in is just faster and more convenient.
