|
|
I've been having some issues with ReadyBoost, which seem to be caused by the rdyboost.sys driver. I've done all the obvious stuff, including testing the hardware and the card reader, as well as re-installing the drivers.
What I want to do is debug it with WinDbg, but I don't have a serial port. I'm assuming the local kernel debugging would be difficult for this kinda thing, since I'd probably end up hanging the whole thing.
I spotted in the latest version of WinDbg that I can do network debugging. How do I set up network debugging with bcdedit?

Ready Boost doesn't help for jack shit . . . I put in 16GB worth of Ready Boost and saw absolutely no changes. Solution: Don't use it.

it works if you're pathetically ram starved.

I've heard this too, but I'm running Photoshop on a laptop with 3GB of RAM and Vista. Without it, I get some horrible lag as I try to switch between images. Plus it's annoying that the feature doesn't work when it should, my curiosity is making me want to work it out more than anything.
So, any ideas on how to set up the network debugging?

then it probably isn't for you. i think it only made a noticable difference on machines with 512mb. past that and it was pretty much nothing.
the flash drives probably don't have a lot of raw transfer power (unless you're on a usb 3.0 device in which case it has shitloads of breathing room speed wise) but it has low access time. i guess it would be a win if you're accessing tons of random files, which probably happens when shit starts getting pushed into the page file due to your lack of memory, but for a large sequential one, i'm not so sure it would help.

Well if I take my flash card out, run Photoshop and attempt to load a decent size image I get massive lag when scrolling and loading images. If I close Photoshop, plug the flash card in (previous to when ReadyBoost was b0rked) and do the same thing, I get much less lag.
And regardless of whether or not you think ReadyBoost is responsible for said performance increase, I'd still like to know how to make WinDbg work over the network. It's useful regardless of the current problem.
