I've noticed that your BoincTasks do a lot of I/O Read and I//O Write Bytes to the hard drive.
Is there any way to redirect them to a RAM Drive?
Should I reinstall BoincTasks onto the RAM Drive?

Thanks.

The history files are stored on disk.
Go to the expert tab and check "Override default..." and point it to the ram drive.
Otherwise you can switch off the history, but then some functions will no longer work.

Done.  That was easy and it didn't even hurt.  Thanks.  Gandalf
