MK>What RAM disk has this ridiculous limitation?

MS-Dos 6.22
and
WfW 3.11

MK>Did you take care of pointing TMPDIR environment variable to the RAM 
MK>disk, when you measured this?  If not, the slow-down from writing 
MK>temporary files to the hard disk completely overshadows the gains of 
MK>having programs on the RAM disk.

The Temp-Directory is a second 16 MByte RAM-Disk

MK>You also need to set COMPILER_PATH and other environment variables, 
MK>otherwise GCC will still invoke the compiler passes from the hard disk, 
MK>not from the RAM drive.

I know !!!

I f I get a better ramdrive driver which can handel more then 32 MBytes 
I will try it again on my Workstation (K6-200 with 192 MByte EDO).

Any recomandations for a RAM-Disk driver ???

Have a nice evening

Michelle
