Looking at the following key in the Registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet001\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management

I am baffled at why the SecondLevelDataCache parameter is defaulted at 512(K). How many processors today have a cache this large? Anyway, I am temporarily running a Celeron 850, would I change this to 128?

Also, how does the LargeSystemCache setting differ from the aforementioned one? Should I set this to 128 too?

While there are quite a few interesting parameters in this particular key, is anyone familiar with the four "Pool" related (PagedPool & NonPagedPool) settings?

Have a great weekend cool

taken straight from the jsiinc site:

NOTE: This is only useful for computers with direct-mapped L2 caches. Pentium II and latter processes do not have direct-mapped L2 caches


so i guess it doesn't actually matter (celeron 850 is a celeron II yeah?)

On-die cache, cannot be configured using that Registry key, only older L2 piplined fofboard cache can be altered.
