AIM Toolkit RAMdisk Crystal Disk Mark Speeds

[Gilbert Gosseyn]

Hello. In the previous version of AIM Toolkit (ImDisk Toolkit), I was getting faster Crystal Disk Mark speeds in reading and writing from the RAM drive. Is there a way to get those speeds? They were 4 to 5 times faster.

Sorry but it's not even the same version between the 2 tests...
Are you sure to use exactly the same options?

Here are my results. As we can see, it's globally slower except for sequential write requests in dynamic ramdisks.
Anyway, nothing shocking, and nothing you can sense in real life.

I compared the results between ImDisk Toolkit and AIM Toolkit.

ImDisk Toolkit was also faster in my results.
RND4K Q32T16 was particularly slow, and we felt that the large latency was the reason for the difference in speed.
Perhaps it is the nature of Arsenal Image Mounter driver.

Still, the random performance is higher than SSDs.
Personally, I don't mind the speed reduction.
While it is true that ImDisk Toolkit is faster, it also has its bugs.
