- I'd like to start using a ram disk, a la Maxima, and I was wondering what other
- have found to be the most effective way to set it up as far as maximizing
- speed. I've got a IIsi, 17MB RAM, and the applications I use most often are
- Word 5.1 and Microphone II 4.0. My system folder itself is too large to
- effectively put on a RAM disk, but perhaps the system and finder only? Or how
- about Word, or MicroPhone? What is a good size to set my RAM disk to?
-
- I'm sure this has already been discussed a million times in various newsgroups
- and I apologize for boring you vets, but a few of us might be interested.
-
- Thanks for reading and responding.
