Cache size...

SpinDoctor · **Posted:** Thu Jul 29, 2004 9:36 am

Hey all.

I'm trying to set the cache size at the call to GREEN ( GREEN != 0 ).

When retrieving the cache-size afterwards ( GREEN ), it's always the same (default) cache-size...
is this normal behavior???

Thanks
Spin

you're makin' me an expert..

OK, I understand now....Hardware-Cache (located on the drive?!?!?!?) can be raed, but not changed...OK. Software-Cache can be set, but not read? There is really no way to find out, what cache size is used, when set to 0 (default) ?

This it not really nessecary, only need it for UI. Take a look at the (wrong interpreted) dialog:

HTTP://MITGLIED.LYCOS.DE/SPINDOCTORINC/SETOPTIONS.GIF

just want to show enduser, what cache size is used, when selecting 0 (default).

just askin'

Hello,

Generally speaking you can specify the size of IO buffer which is used by DataBurner ( and by other Burners). The Drive object has property - CacheSize.
Usually, you DON'T need to change size of this buffer. One case when you may change size of this buffer is - "using" DataBurner on the WEB page. In fact you may reduce size of buffer in order to "save" memory!

Regards,

Dmitry

Keep it default. Should be OK for 99% of the cases.
