Now something really strange. Page load time of ctk.ceskenoviny.cz when
Arachne was launched entirely from RAM disk, is constantly 8 sec, while
on drive C: it is 8 sec only before pages are cached - and then it is
7 sec (!) (second reload from cache). On drive E:, it won't get under
11 sec....
So what can be wrong with my drive E: ? Maybe the disk surface is too
tired from storing my Arachne home directory for nearly 3 years ? ;-)
And how it is possible, that disk C: is faster, than my RAM disk ? (?)
Is size of clusters really so important ?
BTW, the times are really related to location of cache, not location
of Arachne. I have tried copying my cache.idx with absolute pathnames
from my E: drive to C: ... yes. C: Arachne with cache on e: 12 sec.
E: Arachne with cache on C: 7 sec.
Wise DOS gurus, can you please explain me how is this possible ? ;-)
(I am running DR-DOS 7.01...)
