- Copies 850KB in 35 seconds from hard to floppy disk,
this equals the speed of formatting. This is possible because,
minimizes the overall seek time required to read or write data from or to
disk. Outstanding I/O requests are ordered such that they can all be performed
"with one sweep" of the disk head assembly, from the highest to the lowest disk
address (Elevator seeking).
- 23 MB/s while reading, (SysInfo V3.23) instead of 7 MB/s without cache,
with an Amiga and following equiment: Zorro III, CyberStorm MKIII, 060/PPC 604 150Mhz, UltraWide SCSI HD, 64 MB FastMemory, CopyMemQuick 40+.
- The booting can get twice as fast if there are a lot of small files
to load and many files reside in the `WBStartup' directory.
- Faster access to directories from Workbench.
- Amiga MC68030 50MHz, 16MB FastMemory.
