Juhani, will test ASAP and report back.

UPDATE: This article has become outdated.

In the meantime, I've found out a lot more about all this stuff. The cache values have turned out to be hugely interdependent and their value also depending on the actual sector size. That is, a, say, x50v setting not necessarily is any good on a hx4700 and vice versa.

As, so far, almost all the public tweaks have just copied the x50v settings verbatim, I've decided to dive into the problem more and found out a lot.

Actually, almost all the public cache and other file system tweaks (except for the NaviPoint, the fake server and the filesys.exe throttler app), being "just" copied from the x50v, have turned out to be not the best for the hx4700.

I'll write a big, heavily updated report and tutorial on all this. Please stay tuned.

Solnyshok, I've run exactly the same tests with 8M cache (0x4000). The OS indeed reserved 8M for the cache. The results are as follows:

File copy from SD to main storage: 0:14 m:s
Main-main install: 1:32 m:s; after this, filesys.exe immediately kicked in and lasted for about 7 minutes
Uninstall from main memory: 1:25 m:s; filesys.exe didnâ€™t immediately kick in after this

That is, the results are a bit better than with the lower/no-cache settings except for deletion.
