10.5: How to create a RAM disk larger than 2.2GB
I use this script to create a 8,3GB ram disk every time my computer boots (after user login).
(Start Scripteditor and save it as a executable program, then add the programm as a user startup item. Although it can take up to 2 minutes until the raid is created) I use a G5 (Late 2005) with very mixed ram (pc2 4200, 5300, 6400 etc). It might be interesting to test this method with a raid 1 configuration. on top of the raid 0 conifguration. This really speeds up my work, since Photoshop can address just 3GB of ram under 10.5.8. Enjoy H. http://haraldgeisler.com Here is the script:
do shell script "
