Found an incredible windows registry tweak for increasing overall multi-tasking performance.
Open "
regedit" and go to:
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Executive
Tweak
AdditionalCriticalWorkerThreads to
0x10 (16)The AdditionalCriticalWorkerThreads value increases the number of critical worker threads created for a specified work queue. Critical worker threads process time-critical work items and have their stack present in physical memory at all times. An insufficient number of threads will reduce the rate at which time-critical work items are serviced; a value that is too high will consume system resources unnecessarily.
Start at 10 and if you find your resources maxing out, incrementally lower the value until you find a nice balance.
8 works best on my system.
