Run into an interesting site regarding RAMDISK. There might be interesting
uses for Citrix related applications:
http://home.tiscali.be/ir006712/RAMDisk/RAMDisk.htm
Based on Microsoft RAMDisk sample (Q257405). Code for original "free"
version 1.0 is available here:
http://codeguru.earthweb.com/system/RAMDisk_src.zip
Free version or $10 for "extended" version 2.2.
Here is some info from the site:
"A RAMDisk acts as a virtual drive on your system. It allows you to create
directories, copy files to and from it, etc.... The data however is not
written onto a hard disk, but remains purely stored into a particular part
of your RAM memory. Hard disks have mechanical parts that allow to seek to a
particular position on the magnetic storage media and to read/write data.
This make them relative lazy. A RAMDisk can read and write the same data to
upon 30-60 times faster than a hard disk ! However, the data stored in your
RAM is "volatile" : it disappears when you cut off the power to the RAM
memory, with other words, if you turn off your system. This applies to the
content of the RAMDisk too !"
