Thanks! Message-ID: <11830006@hpldola.HP.COM> Date: 24 Jun 88 16:17:50 GMT Organization: HP Elec. Design Div. -ColoSpgs Lines: 21 I would like to thank Uli Kuebler for a really nice utility, FATSPEED. It really speeds up writing to hard disk partitions. For example: copy 40 files (smallest = 1KB, largest = 200KB, total size = 530KB) from partition D: to a new directory on partition C: (partition C: is 10MB, with about 5.4MB free). command given at msh prompt: time "cp * c:\tmp" without FATSPEED time returned: 0:07:27.500 with FATSPEED time returned: 0:02:58.275 That's over 2.5 times faster!! Now for the inevitable question: How'd ya do it?? Thanks again, Joe Gilray (hpldola!jg)
