- Small floppy-caching commodity
- .description
- I don't use floppy disks very often. But when I used them I was
- bored by the slow speed.
- To get rid of this, I wrote CacheIt. CacheIt is a small floppy-
- caching commodity that hardly doesn't take up any memory when no
- disks are in drive and gives a great speed up for your floppies.
-
- Another requirement for CacheIt was, that it would free its memory
- when the system needs it. This is done by a low memory handler.
- It works fantastically: I worked a lot with disks and my system
- was down at 10 KB Chip and 10 KB FastMem, when I tried to start
- a terminal program.
- No problem: CacheIt released as much track buffers as necessary
- and the terminal program started!
-
- CacheIt works with DD and HD floppy drives.
