Xenomorph Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Windows Vista Ultimate x64 SP1 Intel Dual Core CPU @ 3.2 GHz 4 Gigs of DDR2 800MHz RAM WD 640 Gig HDD, 7200 RPM, SATA2 I have all settings at default in ImgBurn. Memory usage for the actual program stays in the 40-200 meg range. The RAM mostly fills up with the DISK CACHE. It's not an issue if the image is under 2 Gigs, but when burning 4 gig, 5, gig, 8 gig, etc - my physical memory just starts filling up, and everything starts to get paged, and performance goes downhill fast. The image does get burned, but only after the drive stops and starts several times as Windows tries to page ImgBurn to disk as well. Any idea how to prevent this?

mmalves Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Are you using the latest ImgBurn 2.4.2.0? I recall a similar question was made a long time ago, I'll try and find it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontasciime Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 How is the page file setup. You specified how much and where? also maybe try and re create page file as it might have become corrupt. Cannot say as I have never ran your operating system before but maybe look to see how it initiates memory usage, like PAE stuff on a 32bit system is there anything special the version your running does to activate chip features/ memory controllers etc. Probably won't help but you have to start somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenomorph Posted August 5, 2008 Author Share Posted August 5, 2008 http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=6549 - couldn't find anything else Wow, that is *exactly* what Task Manager showed for me. A steady climb of memory usage, then a sudden dropped as soon as the burn finished (or I canceled it). It seemed like the cause was that the ISO was open in multiple applications. Both ImgBurn and uTorrent. I closed uTorrent, and Windows stopped trying to cache the entire ISO to RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
