I rocked my AX50V with over 1MB Cache

I tried to increase both TCP/IP cache and GLY{H cache to 30000 Hex (Over 131000 KB)on my AX50V. It worked so well, and now my AX50V rocks very solid in performance as if overclocked on steroids! Streaming media and internet are where I see a significant fast performance. I wonde whether I have tweaked correctly or not, but based on rocking perfomance I wish to increase both even more!

I wish to know theoratically which is the limit for both on AX50V? (64MB RAM - 128 MB ROM - 1 GB SD - 2GB CF)

At a guess, having a lot of cache may well speed up your browsing and stuff, but will reduce the available system memory so a bunch more stuff won't even run (e.g. Quake or TomTom)
Fatal Error: Please perform a hard reset

Do you have any benchmarking and trending information or is this just "gut feel"?

It was something I got inspired to try on my own once I read reviews about how to speed up PIE / PPC in general by increasing TCP/IP Window Sizd and GLYPH cache. It was something like let me try and so I wished to know about maximum possible values for both. (For AX50V)

There is tweak app that can do this for you, apart from other functions it offers.

I believe so. if you know registry well, PHM regedit can also do it, but not as straight forward.

Hi all,

been a happy X50V owner for a cpl of months and finally got round to posting on aximsite

traditionally cache is all to do with preloading of instructions, or more accurately where the next jump is (as jump instructions are encountered, a log is made in the cache), essentially it works by effectively pre-empting the instructions to save time so the processor can be used more effectively. basically instructions are loaded before the processor needs them, and the cache basically stores the address where jump commands were found so it can load the relevant next instruction into the buffer to save having to load it from memory when the processor needs it. this eneables the processor to require less "ticks" per instruction. 1MB of cache is pretty big for a desktop, so is rather large for a pocket pc.

it might deliver a nice speed gain, but not sure how necessary it is, as some things will still need to be loaded from ROM anyway.

hope that's semi useful tech jargon I would be interested to see the bench marks as well.

cheers guys

Here is what I did using TRE registry editor program

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comms\Tcpip\Parms\TcpWindowSize

and modify value of this DWORD to 30000 (HEX)

Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\GLYPHCACHE

and modify value of this DWORD to 30000 (HEX)
