I found in the PSEXEC help this sentence: If you omit a username the remote process runs in thesame account from which you execute PsExec, but because the remote process isimpersonating it will not have access to network resources on the remotesystem. When you specify a username the remote process executes in the accountspecified, and will have access to any network resources the account has accessto. Note that the password is transmitted in clear text to the remote system. I would like to know what it is mean, because I have a problem to access the network resources from psexec, I try to install a program found in network resource from my compter to another computer. all of computer can access network resources, but when i try to use it by psexec , it doesnt allow me to do it i try this code psexec \\GuidoS-T2 -u GuidoS-T2\ArminH -p testing -i -c -f -d I:\MarizA\Full_Automatisierung\Config_INI_dSPACE\copy.bat and the script in copy.bat is: Robocopy \\NAS1-DSPACE\Info\MarizA\RemoteAcess /COPY:DAT O=GuidoS-T2\ArminH U=testing C: /copyall /E /SEC /R:1 /W:1 /LOG:c:\Robocopylog.txt /TEE and the error is NOTE : NTFS Security may not be copied - Source may not be NTFS. 2012/05/07 13:46:48 ERROR 1326 (0x0000052E) Accessing Source Directory \\NAS1-DSPACE\Info\MarizA\RemoteAcess\ Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

Hi, This works just fine but only if SFS (Simple File Sharing) feature is disabled. It can be toggled by 2 ways: 1. Tools->Folder Options->view : right at the bottom check\uncheck simple file sharing 2. Open regedit & navigate to this path : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa and put value as 1 of "forceguest" to enable or 0 to disable. I don't want the user to even do this much of a work at his side & still be able to run exe, is it possible? ]]>nikhil31Mon, 16 Apr 2012 02:06:40 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/remote-computing/psexec#commentsAnchorhttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/remote-computing/psexec#commentsAnchorWed, 22 Feb 2012 06:37:23 GMT
I am trying to give some db2 command from my local system to remote system using psexec, then those commands are not getting executed on that remote server.

Hi All, I am using the following command PsExec.exe -u "username" -p "password" \\Remote_Server -w "F:\Test" cmd /c call test.bat The command executes successfully on the remote server by control does not seem to come back to the host system.

Jeremy "Slimer" Reimer (arstechnica "reporter" who has no years to decades of professional experience in ths field & it showed here - he was offtopic the ENTIRE time, & brought in his friends to "help" him, & only had their hand exposed when Veritas turned out to also be Waarheid here - posting as another identity to help "support" the other arstechnicans, but only showing how scumbaggish they really are in doing puny tricks that are EASILY exposed, in doing so. 2.) Jay Little - the "self-proclaimed exchange expert", who didn’t even REALIZE that "Memory Optimizers" have been shown to improve the performance of stalled Exchange Servers, by getting them running again when memory fragmentation freezes them up & who followed + harassed me on other forums (NTCOMPATIBLE.COM) where he was kicked out & outright WRONG on Ramdisks (to which Dosfreak, another arstechnican no less also, told him he was wrong/off as well no less) & BSOD stopcodes (IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO, being bad device drivers caused). 3.) Jarrett DeAngelis in particular (the latter denying that was his REAL name, outright lying about it in fact - but, in the end he HAD to admit that this is really he (he went by StarKruzr here & elsewhere online)) - because of some "detective work" I had done in this regards, & his admission I was correct in my points (how could I not be?

PeterQuentin (&, anyone else): To top off the bit from SLASHDOT (/.) above, & Terminal Server users being helped by memory optimization programs above (per my last post)? The original list I challenge ANYBODY to disprove as to its points is now below alongside it now, also (Good luck with disproving Microsoft’s own documentation by the way, in regards to my challenge here): ---- 1.) Microsoft shows memory fragmentation causes Exchange Server 2003 (& prior versions) problems a lot (which memory optimizers stop, & even Dr Russinovich + Arstechnica even admit they can stop memory fragmentation)! ******* Mark Russinovich - "Having contiguous available memory can improve performance in one case: when the Memory Manager, to maximize the behavior of the CPU memory caches, uses a mechanism called page coloring to decide which page from the free or zeroed page list to assign to a process." Mark Russinovich - "Developers of RAM optimizers also claim that their products defragment memory. The act of allocating, then freeing a large amount of virtual memory might, as a conceivable side effect, lead to blocks of contiguous available memory" ******* XADM: The Extensible Storage Engine Database Engine Contributes to Virtual Memory Fragmentation Exchange 2000 Server, like many large scale programs, may experience virtual memory (VM) fragmentation. Over time, the server may not perform well, & you may not be able to mount storage groups because of VM fragmentation. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324118 XADM: You Experience Excessive Virtual Memory Fragmentation on a Heavily Loaded Exchange Server Your Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server computer may experience virtual memory fragmentation at a much greater frequency than you expect. As a result, you may have to restart the Exchange 2000 computer more frequently than you expect. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;828934 ---- 2.) Microsoft producing clearmem.exe (which its description IS "Clear Memory" even in Windows Server 2003 reskits) & is in its default commandline, just another memory optimizer (as this article’s author calls them)! DESCRIPTION (verbatim, from Microsoft’s resource kit website) = Clearmem.exe: Clear Memory Not a "testing tool": ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - "Clearmem is *not* a fixing system, it is a tool for developers & testers." - Anonymous User - April 04, 2005 ******* (Point #3 right after this one shows otherwise as well as Microsoft’s OWN DESCRIPTION of said program above.) ---- 3.) Also how memory optimizer apps can unfreeze lagged/frozen memory starved apps, such as how Microsoft’s own Clearmem.exe unfroze apps & was cited from MS as being useful here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;234339 "WORKAROUND You can run Clearmem.exe to recover from this problem. The Clearmem utility flushes the section used as file cache, thus the file object in question is dereferenced by running Clearmem." Above all - If these tools of this nature are "useless" etc., as Dr. Mark Russinovich claims? Why then does Microsoft, the inventor of this OS family, include clearmem.exe (a memory optimizer, albeit a bit crude in console/DOS commandline/character mode design & not nearly as feature-laden & automated) in their current resource kits for said OS’ & since the NT 3.5x days no less? (&, before anyone tries the "they are unsupported by Microsoft", newsflash - it does not mean they don’t work, they do. It’s that Microsoft’s technical support reps are not required to know them in detail or how to use them etc.) ---- 4.) Memory & diskcache freeup (which memory optimizers do forcing the VM subsystem to work globally & uniquely in mine messaging each app to do so from its discardeables) from the OS’ native filesystem cache (which helps IBM DB/2) & IBM DB/2 mag backs this up below: ******* Mark Russinovich - "Although gaining more available memory might seem beneficial, it isn’t." ******* OH, really? Read this: http://www.db2mag.com/qanda/030318.shtml "minimize the operating system’s use of memory for file caching. By doing so, you maximize DB2’s working set memory for buffer pools, sort heaps, & lock lists." &, what did Mike-Rowe Sarft say? Let’s requote him, shall we?? Here we go: ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - ""If free memory is the enemy of performance?" What a ridiculous assumption - who said it was" - Anonymous User - April 14, 2005 ******* Dr. Russinovich himself, & the first replier to this article also, in Henry Mason: ******* "I have just one comment: Free memory is the enemy of true performance" - Henry Mason - January 23, 2004 ******* I quote BOTH above - "RTFA"! To Mr. Mason, I suggest you read my reply here as well. Drink it in, & digest it. ******* "If you could provide a range of successful examples of how a ram "optimizer" could actually benefit me as a power user or programmer or DB admin, I’d love to hear them" - amos_olson - August 11, 2004 ******* ’Ask & ye shall receive AMOS OLSON’: read the above excerpt from IBM DB/2 Magazine & the ones regarding Exchange Server (point #1) from Microsoft themselves above it also, as well as the rest of my 14 points here! ---- 5.) VERY IRONICALLY: A partial excerpt from arstechnica, stating that memory optimization techniques are useful (supplementing the VM fragmentation problems Dr. Russinovich concedes these programs prevent, especially w/ Exchange Server): (Regarding memory optimization/heap compaction uses, & alot of that article? Seems to ’bite off’ of article #1 @ NTCompatible.com which I authored back in 1997-1998 as well: ah, the originality of arstechnica, NOT!) Anyhow: http://arstechnica.com/guides/tweaks/memory-1.ars/2 ******* "What is actually occurring when one ’defragments’ the system memory is a dumping of main memory to the page file, forcing the computer to reload all of the active information into memory. In computing terms, this is called Heap Compaction, or Garbage Collection. You can use a small, Visual Basic program to perform this action. Simply open up a new file in notepad, input the line Mystring = Space(16000000), & save the file w/ the .vbs extension. Assuming you have the Visual Basic runtime libraries installed on your computer (they’re installed by default by Win2k), when you execute this file it will flush the system memory. This is particularly useful after running a program w/ a known memory leak - it can be used to discard the leaked space & allow other programs to use that portion of memory again. If you have a large amount of system memory, you may wish to consider using a higher number w/in the brackets of the visual basic script - I have tested values up to 80000000 w/out any problems on my system. Using a higher number should more effectively purge the system memory of leaked space." ******* Problem is? That VB-interpreted code mystring SPACE array allocate, write, deallocate would be TOO slow when compared to myself doing it in pure inlined assembler code & in combination w/ Delphi & does not automatically ’sense’ how much to allocate/write/deallocate either! E.G.-> One of my testers (A Mr. John M. Mijo) can most likely second that, if you would like to write & inquire w/ him on it Jeremy Reimer, here is his email: John M. Mijo [jmmijo@comcast.net] Mr. Mijo ran "APK RamCharge 2002++ SR-1" (Delphi + ASM code) vs. "FreeRAM" (not sure what language this one was written in but, I would guess the usuals: C++ or VB coded)! Here were his comments on that comparison & the proof of my statements above from that tester of my program’s results - &, Here’s what he stated about it, as well as giving me suggestions on how to make mine better via a VERY good feature addition he felt was needed & suggested - "I do notice how much faster yours runs"... ---- 6.) Along w/ point #2 & #3, also in the example Martin Meszaros pointed out to me in email regarding the XNews newsreader problem he had which my "APK RamCharge" fixed for him. "I was downloading binaries from newsgroups, using Xnews newsreader. Xnews likes to keep all headers in ram, it only saves them to disk when closing the program. So here I am w/ 1 gig of memory usage,(my machine physically has 768 MB) & 4 physical megs of ram free for everything else. My system was CRAWLING. I fire up ramcharge, set for 128, I notice it snags 128 MB, fording other stuff off ram into pagefile, & then lets go. Whammy I got about 150 MB physical ram free & the machine stopped its crawling. this is an ingenious ram clearing strategy, & I don’t believe any of the other crap "ram optimisers" do it this way. Martin Meszaros, MCSE, MCP+I, CNA" ---- 7.) The example of network copying of HUGE files/folders example one person provided which a memory optimizer cured also from the longer 10 points & examples list I provided above. "there are some bugs in the Memory Management. In some Posibilities the Cache Manager will grow & grow & will not Release RAM. This could cause a Systemcrash. You can test it by your Self, take a System w/ a lot off files & try to copy them over a Networkshare w/ the Explorer. The RAM used for Cache Manager will grow & grow & the System do not release this RAM because it has noth enough time to do it. In some cases (very fast Harddisks & Network, other treads that needs Systemperformance like Virus-Scanner) the System will Crash complete w/ errors like 1020, Noth enough Ram, e.g. The only way to prevent a Systemcrash is to force the System to free the Cachemanager. MK hacki01 -August 02, 2004" ---- 8.) Regarding games having more free RAM prior to play to stop lag in game - memory optimzer programs being used before loading the game to free RAM to stop that, & other hesitations which, again, 1 second of that can KILL you. You cannot evade shots taken @ you in effect if you are chained down because the game is out of RAM & has to page in more of its own data due to memory starvations. "For gamers forcing other processes out of memory to the VM is a good thing. Not everyone likes to use Task Manager to End Processs. Players of Planetside & other games will agree the more memory the better. If your claim that more Available Memory not being beneficial was correct, w/ regards to gaming, then most all Gamers (who lead the push for higher end PC parts)are all wrong for running 1Gb + of memory to increase performance. We should all be happy as clams w/ 512Mb as we can just page everything to VM & run it from there. If you decide to argue that gamers don’t make up a large portion of the computing community you again would be wrong. Its a multiBillion dollar industry that is only getting bigger as time goes on. I will agree a desktop user running Word, Browswers, email, etc prob wouldn’t find these Utilities useful, I think they can have a place of usefulness in the gaming Community for games we love that happen to be RAM HOGS. Greg Waggoner -June 13, 2004" ---- 9.) "Criticism is good but do you have solution for freeing RAM when my comp is slow w/ 512 MB of RAM? If it’s true that memory management frees up my RAM after process exit, why is my RAM so occupied? Windows is not as perfect as you write in your article. They also have many bugs & some of your claims are not true at all" - Miro, June 14, 2004 Yet another layer of icing on the cake also. Another replier here questioning the veracity & accuracy of Dr. Russinovich’s article above. ---- 10.) "memory managers provide a bit of forward-planning that Windows doesn’t have: if I want 10MB available for a busy app to grab w/out waiting, then it should be there. I shouldn’t have to wait at a critical moment in the execution my app while Windows fiddles w/ RAM & writes a whole load of stuff to disk. That can happen when the app is less busy. That’s what my memory manager does for me." - Donn Edwards - July 07, 2004 ---- 11.) "I completely agree w/ Donn Edwards’ post dated July 7th. Windows cannot foresee what a user will be doing next & this is what Mark Russinovich has ignored." - Heinz.Wehner - July 30, 2004 ---- 12.) "brute-forcing pages out of physical memory might actually improve performance of some applications." - Andreas -June 11, 2004 I agree Andreas, & showed a few such examples above, along w/ others here whom I quoted as well! Why do you think this other poster, whom I cite next below in point #13, wrote this earlier also: ---- 13.) "APK is right." - Jeremy A+, BA Comp Sci Anonymous User -April 15, 2005 Here IS why - First of all, Dr. Mark Russinovich was WAY too "absolute" here in this article, imo, & didn’t cover scenarios like: E.G. from above -> IBM DB/2 database engine being adversely affected by the native OS cache & its double buffering negative effect on performance. Freeing memory from other apps & the system cache for IBM DB/2?? By NO MEANS its enemy as shown above from their own magazine & forums articles. As well as virtual memory fragmentation adversely affecting Exchange Server 2003 negatively which Dr. Russinovich admits that memory optimizers CAN prevent, also shown above. ---- 14.) "Actually a memory optimizer is really necessary (I mean that a memory optimizer must be installed in order to complete this task) is using virtual machines on computers that don’t have extraordinarily huge amounts of RAM." - NetRolller 3D December 15, 2005 ---- 15.) FireFox memory fragmentation issues (as well as bloat/over-consumption of RAM due to it): http://blog.pavlov.net/2007/11/10/memory-fragmentation/ That illustrates how/why FireFox has so much of a memory footprint & guess what its due to?

Regarding the post by Rajeevnair81 on September 19, 2006: I believe the problem you encountered stems from fact that PSEXEC, per the article, will "redirect console applications’ output to the local system". The key phrase being "console applications". Notepad and other programs that have a Graphical User Interface (GUI) are not console-type programs. I too would like some way to initiate/start a GUI-type program on a remote computer that would continue running after my connection to that remote computer has ended. Most "remote control" programs are either of the Window’s "Remote Desktop" or VNC approach, or like TelNet/SSH/PSExec approach that seem to fly under the level of a GUI, handling only console output. Great for many, many tasks, but not what I (& perhaps Rajeevnair81) are looking for.]]>DanThu, 18 Sep 2008 10:30:41 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/remote-computing/psexec#commentsAnchorhttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/permissions/the-case-of-the-unexpected-pslist-error#commentsAnchorMon, 08 Sep 2008 16:39:17 GMT

Very late post here, but... Does the fact that Vista on startup uses 1.25GB (of 4GB onboard) of available RAM mean it is more efficient than, say, W2GPro which is now using about 400MB with two browsers, one email (Outlook Express) and Wordpad open? Then, why does W2GPro activate all program calls and functions considerably faster than Vista, and even functions MS Flight Simulator *considerably* faster and more controllable than Vista does?]]>kenMon, 16 Jun 2008 16:30:15 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchorhttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/registry2/accessenum#commentsAnchorSun, 15 Jun 2008 22:48:12 GMT

Some more points of fact, about Jeremy Reimer: "So thanks! Please keep it up. You’re doing great" - Jeremy Reimer November 28, 2007. If you say so, but, it appears that over time? Others agree, per this list: when you somehow manage to appear in articles like these, in written publication in this field for works or wares (rather than just your highschool termpaper b.s. regurgitations of others’ words): WINDOWS MAGAZINE, 1997, "Top Freeware & Shareware of the Year" issue page 210, #1/first entry in fact (my work is there) PC-WELT FEB 1998 - page 84, again, my work is featured there PC-WELT FEB 1999 - page 83, again, my work is featured there CHIP Magazine 7/99 - page 100, my work is there WINDOWS MAGAZINE, WINTER 1998 - page 92, insert section, MUST HAVE WARES, my work is again, there GERMAN PC BOOK, Data Becker publisher "PC Aufrusten und Repairen" my work is contained in it HOT SHAREWARE Numero 46 issue, pg. 54 (PC ware mag from Spain), my work is there, first one featured, yet again! AS WELL AS THIS MAG’S PAGES as noted earlier, for work done for EEC Systems/SuperSpeed.com on PAID CONTRACT (writing portions of their SuperCache program) albeit, for their SuperDisk & HOW TO APPLY IT, took them to a finalist position @ MS Tech Ed, two years in a row iirc. THEN, ^ only then, when you accomplish something like the above Jeremy Reimer? Then, you can talk. QUESTION: Do you have anything like that to your credit from that partial list in written publications in printed pages (not online) from mags or books in this field? And please: NOT your "hack reporter" regurgitations of others words or news online others discovered. APK P.S.=> Reimer, you just avoid my questions, & every time you do... lol, well...

Jeremy Reimer: ANYONE is free to read the above, which is MOSTLY your own words & immaturities noted here all quoted above from yourself, your "arstechnica pals" (most likely just yourself, since you saw fit to impersonate & libel me on your website which you paid for since your ISP/BSP told you enough, or leave, as well as your ISP nailing you email harassing myself). All of which seem to contradict what you’re saying here in fact above just above this reply from myself. Anyone can read your antics above, & know from your OWN words quoted & those of "your friends" (you most likely, since you see fit to accuse ME of it, yet I show definite evidence above you like to do that very thing, assuming alternate guises online to "support your points"). You still also avoid my questions above. Ones like: Since you have "written" (regurgitated Englebart’s words only) a "HISTORY OF THE GUI" well... can you show us a GUI program you have done that is shown on sites & doing well ratings-wise, on a site other than arstechnica (that is just one question above, answer the rest too)?

My 15 points for you to disprove (OR, anyone else, since none of you have managed to) again, are here: ADDED POINT: To go with my other 15 points (especially those from IBM & Microsoft regarding how memory fragmentation adversely affects Exchange Server & DB/2 database engines (industrial strength backoffice server type apps): http://blog.pavlov.net/2007/11/10/memory-fragmentation/ That illustrates how/why FireFox has so much of a memory footprint & guess what its due to? You guessed it - memory fragmentation. Plus the usual from years ago now, that still seem to make it impossible for "the great arstechnicans" (who impersonate others online & post as others to support one another, & got caught doing it here, see above, lol): ------ 1.) Microsoft shows memory fragmentation causes Exchange Server 2003 (& prior versions) problems a lot (which memory optimizers stop, & even Dr Russinovich + Arstechnica even admit they can stop memory fragmentation)! ******* Mark Russinovich - "Having contiguous available memory can improve performance in one case: when the Memory Manager, to maximize the behavior of the CPU memory caches, uses a mechanism called page coloring to decide which page from the free or zeroed page list to assign to a process." Mark Russinovich - "Developers of RAM optimizers also claim that their products defragment memory. The act of allocating, then freeing a large amount of virtual memory might, as a conceivable side effect, lead to blocks of contiguous available memory" ******* XADM: The Extensible Storage Engine Database Engine Contributes to Virtual Memory Fragmentation Exchange 2000 Server, like many large scale programs, may experience virtual memory (VM) fragmentation. Over time, the server may not perform well, & you may not be able to mount storage groups because of VM fragmentation. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324118 XADM: You Experience Excessive Virtual Memory Fragmentation on a Heavily Loaded Exchange Server Your Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server computer may experience virtual memory fragmentation at a much greater frequency than you expect. As a result, you may have to restart the Exchange 2000 computer more frequently than you expect. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;828934 (& 10 more I can supply on request. Earlier, I cite more in the way of examples here showing in how much VM fragmentation (which memory optimizers stop) negatively affects Exchange Server 2003 & previous models of it. I can provide those again upon request should they be required. I have earlier in this thread.) ---- 2.) Microsoft producing clearmem.exe (which its description IS "Clear Memory" even in Windows Server 2003 reskits) & is in its default commandline, just another memory optimizer (as this article’s author calls them)! DESCRIPTION (verbatim, from Microsoft’s resource kit website) = Clearmem.exe: Clear Memory Not a "testing tool": ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - "Clearmem is *not* a fixing system, it is a tool for developers & testers." - Anonymous User - April 04, 2005 ******* (Point #3 right after this one shows otherwise as well as Microsoft’s OWN DESCRIPTION of said program above.) ---- 3.) Also how memory optimizer apps can unfreeze lagged/frozen memory starved apps, such as how Microsoft’s own Clearmem.exe unfroze apps & was cited from MS as being useful here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;234339 "WORKAROUND You can run Clearmem.exe to recover from this problem. The Clearmem utility flushes the section used as file cache, thus the file object in question is dereferenced by running Clearmem." Above all - If these tools of this nature are "useless" as Dr. Mark Russinovich claims? Why then does Microsoft, the inventor of this OS family, include clearmem.exe (a memory optimizer, albeit a bit crude in console/DOS commandline/character mode design & not nearly as feature-laden & automated) in their current resource kits for said OS’ & since the NT 3.5x days no less? (&, before anyone tries the "they are unsupported by Microsoft", newsflash - it does not mean they don’t work, they do. It’s that Microsoft’s technical support reps are not required to know them in detail or how to use them etc.) ---- 4.) Memory & diskcache freeup (which memory optimizers do forcing the VM subsystem to work globally & uniquely in mine messaging each app to do so from its discardeables) from the OS’ native filesystem cache (which helps IBM DB/2) & IBM DB/2 mag backs this up below: ******* Mark Russinovich - "Although gaining more available memory might seem beneficial, it isn’t." ******* OH, really? Read this: http://www.db2mag.com/qanda/030318.shtml "minimize the operating system’s use of memory for file caching. By doing so, you maximize DB2’s working set memory for buffer pools, sort heaps, & lock lists." &, what did Mike-Rowe Sarft say? Let’s requote him, shall we?? Here we go: ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - ""If free memory is the enemy of performance?" What a ridiculous assumption - who said it was" - Anonymous User - April 14, 2005 ******* Dr. Russinovich himself, & the first replier to this article in Henry Mason: ******* "I have just one comment: Free memory is the enemy of true performance" - Henry Mason - January 23, 2004 ******* I quote BOTH above - "RTFA"! To Mr. Mason, I suggest you read my reply here as well. Drink it in, & digest it. ******* "If you could provide a range of successful examples of how a ram "optimizer" could actually benefit me as a power user or programmer or DB admin, I’d love to hear them" - amos_olson - August 11, 2004 ******* ’Ask & ye shall receive AMOS OLSON’: read the above excerpt from IBM DB/2 Magazine & the ones regarding Exchange Server (point #1) from Microsoft themselves above it also, as well as the rest of my 14 points here! ---- 5.) VERY IRONICALLY: A partial excerpt from arstechnica, stating that memory optimization techniques are useful (supplementing the VM fragmentation problems Dr. Russinovich concedes these programs prevent, especially w/ Exchange Server): (Regarding memory optimization/heap compaction uses, & alot of that article? Seems to ’bite off’ of article #1 @ NTCompatible.com which I authored back in 1997-1998 as well: ah, the originality of arstechnica, NOT!) Anyhow: http://arstechnica.com/guides/tweaks/memory-1.ars/2 ******* "What is actually occurring when one ’defragments’ the system memory is a dumping of main memory to the page file, forcing the computer to reload all of the active information into memory. In computing terms, this is called Heap Compaction, or Garbage Collection. You can use a small, Visual Basic program to perform this action. Simply open up a new file in notepad, input the line Mystring = Space(16000000), & save the file w/ the .vbs extension. Assuming you have the Visual Basic runtime libraries installed on your computer (they’re installed by default by Win2k), when you execute this file it will flush the system memory. This is particularly useful after running a program w/ a known memory leak - it can be used to discard the leaked space & allow other programs to use that portion of memory again. If you have a large amount of system memory, you may wish to consider using a higher number w/in the brackets of the visual basic script - I have tested values up to 80000000 w/out any problems on my system. Using a higher number should more effectively purge the system memory of leaked space." ******* Problem is? That VB-interpreted code mystring SPACE array allocate, write, deallocate would be TOO slow when compared to myself doing it in pure inlined assembler code & in combination w/ Delphi & does not automatically ’sense’ how much to allocate/write/deallocate either! E.G.-> One of my testers (A Mr. John M. Mijo) can most likely second that, if you would like to write & inquire w/ him on it Jeremy Reimer, here is his email: John M. Mijo [jmmijo@comcast.net] Mr. Mijo ran "APK RamCharge 2002++ SR-1" (Delphi + ASM code) vs. "FreeRAM" (not sure what language this one was written in but, I would guess the usuals: C++ or VB coded)! Here were his comments on that comparison & the proof of my statements above from that tester of my program’s results - &, Here’s what he stated about it, as well as giving me suggestions on how to make mine better via a VERY good feature addition he felt was needed & suggested - "I do notice how much faster yours runs"... (My program, APK RamCharge 2002++ SR-1, vs. FreeRAM, the competitor program he tested my work against per his findings in head-to-head tests, verbatim, from email to me during tests the past 2-3 months now prior to re-release for Summer 2005). So, feel free to write him yourself if you like Jeremy Reimer! Just as your pal Jay Little did regarding "APK Registry Cleaning Engine" here in fact, to a Mr. Phil Atherton (another one of my testers) & got a GREAT review of it from him about my work. ******* From: "Phil Atherton" Reply-To: To: "’Alexander Kowalski’" I’ve built 2 machines, WinXP Pro SP1 on an Athlon 2800+ system & MediaCentre 2005 on a 3.0GHz P4 system. I had installed Regcleaner 4.3 by Juoni Vuorio on both machines. Regcleaner didn’t work on my MediaCentre PC (it is an OEM machine which I have rebuilt a number of times & tried regcleaner each time but I suspect there’s some OEM gubbins in the Windows set-up that’s causing some instability) BUT your cleaner worked on both. I’m not surprised w/ the APK simple install arrangement. I regularly clean my machines using simple tools, Regcleaner, Norton System Works, X-Setup Pro, Windows Defrag, etc. After running these I immediately tried the APK cleaner to see whether it picked up any additional registry errors, & it found 39! It regularly finds approx 20 more that Regcleaner & takes approx 18 minutes to do the job to Regcleaner’s 5 mins. This is what I would expect as I have a large number of apps installed (approx 36 including Office XP Pro, AutoCAD 2004, etc) & is not surprising if the cleaner is to do its job properly. I do believe I can tell the difference in the operating speed of the machine afterwards. (Slight) I am impressed. Phil Atherton Senior Consultant - Communication Systems ******* That was a real swat in Jay Little’s face publicly here! After all, as usual: Arstechnica only gets what they asked for, their just desserts. Especially when Jay Little wrote him & got this for a reply (which Mr. Atherton sent/forwarded to me): ******* Hi Jay: I am certainly using the APK cleaner & have been having some good results w/ it. I have put the tool’s author on copy of this mail so that he can respond to your request Jay. Good luck & happy cleaning!! Phil Atherton ******* Should Jeremy Reimer write Mr. Mijo, to ask if I am quoting his words directly from email regarding "APK RamCharge"? WELL, I am CERTAIN the result would be the same as it was for Jay Little when he wrote Mr. Phil Atherton regarding "APK Registry Cleaning Engine": Excellent. ---- 6.) Along w/ point #2 & #3, also in the example Martin Meszaros pointed out to me in email regarding the XNews newsreader problem he had which my "APK RamCharge" fixed for him. "I was downloading binaries from newsgroups, using Xnews newsreader. Xnews likes to keep all headers in ram, it only saves them to disk when closing the program. So here I am w/ 1 gig of memory usage,(my machine physically has 768 MB) & 4 physical megs of ram free for everything else. My system was CRAWLING. I fire up ramcharge, set for 128, I notice it snags 128 MB, fording other stuff off ram into pagefile, & then lets go. Whammy I got about 150 MB physical ram free & the machine stopped its crawling. this is an ingenious ram clearing strategy, & I don’t believe any of the other crap "ram optimisers" do it this way. Martin Meszaros, MCSE, MCP+I, CNA" ---- 7.) The example of network copying of HUGE files/folders example one person provided which a memory optimizer cured also from the longer 10 points & examples list I provided above. "there are some bugs in the Memory Management. In some Posibilities the Cache Manager will grow & grow & will not Release RAM. This could cause a Systemcrash. You can test it by your Self, take a System w/ a lot off files & try to copy them over a Networkshare w/ the Explorer. The RAM used for Cache Manager will grow & grow & the System do not release this RAM because it has noth enough time to do it. In some cases (very fast Harddisks & Network, other treads that needs Systemperformance like Virus-Scanner) the System will Crash complete w/ errors like 1020, Noth enough Ram, e.g. The only way to prevent a Systemcrash is to force the System to free the Cachemanager. MK hacki01 -August 02, 2004" ---- 8.) Regarding games having more free RAM prior to play to stop lag in game - memory optimzer programs being used before loading the game to free RAM to stop that, & other hesitations which, again, 1 second of that can KILL you. You cannot evade shots taken @ you in effect if you are chained down because the game is out of RAM & has to page in more of its own data due to memory starvations. "For gamers forcing other processes out of memory to the VM is a good thing. Not everyone likes to use Task Manager to End Processs. Players of Planetside & other games will agree the more memory the better. If your claim that more Available Memory not being beneficial was correct, w/ regards to gaming, then most all Gamers (who lead the push for higher end PC parts)are all wrong for running 1Gb + of memory to increase performance. We should all be happy as clams w/ 512Mb as we can just page everything to VM & run it from there. If you decide to argue that gamers don’t make up a large portion of the computing community you again would be wrong. Its a multiBillion dollar industry that is only getting bigger as time goes on. I will agree a desktop user running Word, Browswers, email, etc prob wouldn’t find these Utilities useful, I think they can have a place of usefulness in the gaming Community for games we love that happen to be RAM HOGS. Greg Waggoner -June 13, 2004" ---- 9.) "Criticism is good but do you have solution for freeing RAM when my comp is slow w/ 512 MB of RAM? If it’s true that memory management frees up my RAM after process exit, why is my RAM so occupied? Windows is not as perfect as you write in your article. They also have many bugs & some of your claims are not true at all" - Miro, June 14, 2004 Yet another layer of icing on the cake also. Another replier here questioning the veracity & accuracy of Dr. Russinovich’s article above. ---- 10.) "memory managers provide a bit of forward-planning that Windows doesn’t have: if I want 10MB available for a busy app to grab w/out waiting, then it should be there. I shouldn’t have to wait at a critical moment in the execution my app while Windows fiddles w/ RAM & writes a whole load of stuff to disk. That can happen when the app is less busy. That’s what my memory manager does for me." - Donn Edwards - July 07, 2004 ---- 11.) "I completely agree w/ Donn Edwards’ post dated July 7th. Windows cannot foresee what a user will be doing next & this is what Mark Russinovich has ignored." - Heinz.Wehner - July 30, 2004 ---- 12.) "brute-forcing pages out of physical memory might actually improve performance of some applications." - Andreas -June 11, 2004 I agree Andreas, & showed a few such examples above, along w/ others here whom I quoted as well! Why do you think this other poster, whom I cite next below in point #13, wrote this earlier also: ---- 13.) "APK is right." - Jeremy A+, BA Comp Sci Anonymous User -April 15, 2005 Here IS why - First of all, Dr. Mark Russinovich was WAY too "absolute" here in this article, imo, & didn’t cover scenarios like: E.G. from above -> IBM DB/2 database engine being adversely affected by the native OS cache & its double buffering negative effect on performance. Freeing memory from other apps & the system cache for IBM DB/2?? By NO MEANS its enemy as shown above from their own magazine & forums articles. As well as virtual memory fragmentation adversely affecting Exchange Server 2003 negatively which Dr. Russinovich admits that memory optimizers CAN prevent, also shown above. ---- 14.) "Actually a memory optimizer is really necessary (I mean that a memory optimizer must be installed in order to complete this task) is using virtual machines on computers that don’t have extraordinarily huge amounts of RAM." - NetRolller 3D December 15, 2005 ---- 15.) Additionally/Lastly, Dr. Russinovich’s own mistakes in pagedefrag.exe which still contains rookie type hardcodes as to the location of the EventLogs, which also like pagefile.sys (which I pointed out to him & he corrected pagedefrag.exe 2.20 & above for thanking me for in email no less & understood why) can be moved via the registry locations for them! This is done to gain more performance by not having I/O occurring in them contend w/ other I/O from programs & the OS on the C:\ drive. It’s easy to do via some native NtAPI calls like (lol, the irony of this is amazing, the guy that hacked up the native NtAPI via disassembly tools/debuggers OR Dll Injection, didn’t know how to use the very calls in question in code & practical application & INSTEAD, hardcoded): NtCreateKey NtOpenKey NtEnumerateKey NtEnumerateValueKey NtQueryValueKey To read the PROPER values for the paths for the files EventLog actually uses from here in the registry on its left-hand side items tree paths: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog Reading its subkeys of Application, System, & Security (& others if you use DHCP server service etc.) for their right-hand side pane actual FILE values. Someone should write him about that & have him fix it. I did a few times, & warned him about arstech’s antics also. I also asked him to come & disprove my 10 points list posted earlier, & DO still challenge him to disprove the 14 points above. Dr. Russinovich is STILL, a "no show" here & anyone Wonder WHY THAT IS? (I mean, He replied nearly IMMEDIATELY once I pointed out his hardcode errors regarding C:\pagefile.sys being hardcoded into pagedefrag.exe version 2.20 & below via email... why not here, & now on this material?) Is that telling anyone here anything obvious?? Like perhaps, he realizes he overlooked a great deal of scenarios where these types of programs are useful, that he is in error in this article’s statements (in addition to his own work in pagedefrag.exe) & that he should not have called anyone "upstart" etc. either in his article’s termination paragraphs??? E.G.-> This particular hardcoded set of errors I note? They simply illustrate the man’s NOT perfect or some "god of programming" most of all! Fact is, nobody is either of those. Since here in this article, he talks about programs that improve or deter performance, as this article is about? He had best get better @ it, because his own work doesn’t illustrate perfection of knowledge here in that area by any means. It shows ROOKIES’ levels of error, not PhD calibre levels of performance in this area before he rather arrogantly calls this type of of program "useless" & authors of them "upstarts"! Some types of error, especially if you are as well known as this author is imo? ARE inexcusable, such as the hardcodes I noted. However, MORESO, in the namecalling he did in this article @ it’s termination paragraph, & also being absent, avoiding directly disproving my list of 14 points above as well, though I wrote him DIRECTLY several times to do so. I can make assumptions & call names too (BUT, based on facts), since his article does about myself & others that have created memory optimization programs for Windows GUI environs as well: IMO, anyone that uses SoftIce, Windows Debugger, OR DLL Injection techniques to disassemble the work of others (which he wrote me he tried on my work YEARS ago, but there is a few ways to check for the presence of debuggers (SoftIce too) & make your code do anything you like to mess them up & I use them) or to disassemble the Native NtAPI calls for the Operating Systems in the Windows NT-based family as the author of this article has (above what the DDK gave him) & turning it into a career? It’s one built upon "industrial espionage", rather than actual brilliance. If ’cracking/hacking’ apart the Native NtAPI doesn’t also point to this, as well as him trying it on my own work back in the mid 90’s & admitting it to me in email? WHICH BOTH CASES DO?? I rest my case on that, point-blank. On the "difficulty/complexity" of some of his work? Well, e.g.-> The IntToHex/HexToInt & HostName apps?? Either one, I have written in 1/2 a day’s time, TOPS. I note also, for example, that his "ProcessExplorer" program seems to be a combination of the functions of Windows Taskmgr.exe & also the MS reskit PView.exe (ProcessExploder) apps. Nothing REALLY fundamentally original there, just a combination of the best features/capabilities of both. He creates device drivers & may be QUITE good @ it, etc. but, question is, what kind? I’ll tell you: Filtering drivers. Creating those, entails MUCH less difficulty involved doing those than ones that actually communicate w/ hardware ASICS & other circuitry. The MS DDK gives you 99% of what you need for those! You operate on a mini-driver model & for filtering drivers? CAKEWALK! No, it may fool the "noobz" & network administrators, saying it’s "Low-Level" coding, but it doesn’t fool me. The irony here in this point is that Dr. Russinovich cracked (via DLL Injection, Debuggers, & tools like SoftIce) a great deal of the body of the Nt Native API, & yet fails to use it properly in pagedefrag.exe because eventlogs locations are hardcoded in it! That, in & of itself, IS very "rookie" quality level in said work. That program particularly in question? IS Pagedefrag.exe! It is one that is supposed to boost system performance. Well, since pagedefrag.exe 2.32 STILL misses the TRUE locations of the eventlogs files in order to make them contiguous for better read/write I/O for system output as well as program outputs into it (or possibly, reads)? How is pagedefrag.exe 2.32 (latest model) improving performance in that portion then, if it cannot spot the actual TRUE locations of the eventlogs files period?? Nuff said on THAT account. ALSO - Paging isn’t "bad" like it’s made to sound by Dr. Russinovich! It’s a CONSTANTLY ongoing process & you can’t avoid it. It’s what modern multitasking VM using OS’, do! When viewed from a single app’s perspective it might be, but not in the overall memory mgt. schema of modern Os’. Apps also have discardable memory, especially after init. launch! They get paged to pagefile.sys in data & resources, & do NOT always access all of them! IN FACT, try this experiment: (As it illustrates what I allude to above & how apps run w/ large tracts of themself paged to disk): In taskmgr.exe processes tab w/ ALL memory-related columns selected from taskmgr.exe’s VIEW menu, Select Columns submenu of options. Then, minimize ANY windowed app on your desktop! You’ll see any app eats more memory on initial load & instancing, & less once minimized & usually they will not consume as much, EVER again provided you don’t use EVERY single feature of the app & most folks do not @ one sitting! Also, & what gets paged? Very often stays paged, unless paged resources are called up from disk (tabbed-interfaced programs are good examples of this in fact). It’s a normal function of this OS & memory mgt. schema, just like any Virtual Memory Operating System does! This also holds true w/ libraries called as well. They only load what they need from their exports functions tables, & that is all. Also, because pagefile.sys read/writes are memory mgr. driven (Ring 0/RPL0/kernel process priority)? They occur VERY fast, & get precedence over other usermode disk oriented I/O, & plus again, iirc, the pagefile.sys is written "raw" and bypasses the filesystem, & that occurs faster than normal read/writes do! Mark may have to correct ME on this last point, but it is what I recall of it. This even gets BETTER & more efficient, once pagefile.sys is moved to another 2nd harddisk (or like I do, to a solid-state RamDisk CENATEK ’rocketdrive’ 2gb unit, along w/ temp ops, cookies, logging, & more from apps/OS). The Memory manager thru VM Allocation (4gb space, 1/2 to app, & 1/2 to system (typical w/out boot.ini /3gb switch in place used))?? Pages large tracts of an app TO DISK! (Especially one w/ HUGE initial StackSizes (this typically gives an app more stability & room to work in/less chance of abend/crash/app failure (well, up to a point like anything else, there is a return on investment curve)). You will see (if you check off the MemUsage & VMSize columns to view in the PROCESSES section of taskmgr.exe) this all in fact. You only use what you NEED & when it’s summoned. If you only use small part of an app? You’ll never use all of it. When loading apps OR dll’s, it is not an "all or nothing" load into RAM (physical RAM) w/ apps OR shared code like DLL’s loaded/called/marshalled/instanced by an app either! You only get what you need to put into memory on a demand paged basis, & as the portion of a program or shared code object (like DLLs) are summoned by you the end user. Again - This holds true for shared DLL code as well (since so much of windows uses this model). Even if shared by diff. apps. DLL’s (shared objects) also get ’demand paged’ & only take into RAM what is needed by apps calling their library of functions! Only things I know of that don’t get paged to disk (by default &/or by registry hack alterations)? Device Drivers code & possibly functions of the OS when certain registry hacks are applied! ---- E.G./NEWFLASH -> Mr. Russinovich isn’t the only person here that’s done a load of work that’s done well both commercially & in freeware/sharewware out there, or who has had his ideas do well @ Microsoft Tech Ed etc.! (E.G.-> Where mine applied YEARS ago no less @ tech-ed 2000 & 2001 consecutively when applied, improved SQL Server performance & had SuperSpeed.com/EEC Systems place as a finalist 2 years in a row in that hardest of all categories: SQL Server Performance Enhancement! That was utilizing SuperDisk-NT for this & ideas in an article for them which I wrote up the ’creative uses of ramdisks’: http://www.functional-it.com/ramdisk.htm Article & its ideas! Which on their website (a famous entity in this field) were featured alongside one of this mag’s own technical editors, a Mr. John Enck! They have been there on that companies’ homepage for years (a decade), & now @ said website (& is now cited on MANY websites such as the one above for bettering performance on computer systems using such tools, not only in theory, but in practice) That, & my improvement of their BEST product, imo, SuperCache by up to 40% better thru reprogramming its engine/algorithm & mathematics for that (Both apps reviewed well in this magazine’s own pages, as Windows NT Magazine, entitled "Back Office Performance" pg.61 April 1997 issue), which I did on a paid job for them, & a pleasure working w/ them no less. That’s a "WEE bit better" than mere simple historical regurgitations of already known knowledge, as it actually gets others better performance & is applied. In fact, MUCH better than Jeremy Reimer’s "termpaper essays" a highschool kid could research & write up over @ arstechnica. The results speak for themselves there on that account.

Jeremy, since you avoided my questions above, & I answered ALL of yours and those of your friends? Answer these questions, instead of evading them as you constantly have, where I answered ALL of yours & anyone elses, by contract. Jeremy Reimer, answer there, 1 by 1: -------------------------- 1.) Jeremy Reimer: Have you any Graphical User Interface programs (GUI) that you have done that we can see/use that other websites are willing to host, that are PROVEN BETTER in head-to-head tests as mine have, such as this one: http://www1.techpowerup.com//downloads/389/foowhatevermakesgooglehappy.html OR, was your statement about that I quote above earlier on this page (where you said you had written GUI programs, lol, not) more of your usual b.s. & lies you got caught in here repeatedly?? (As well as your being caught in email harassing myself as you were by Shaw.ca your ISP/BSP, & then by your website’s HOSTING PROVIDER forcibly removing portions of your website that libelled me)?? -------------------------- 2.) Jeremy Reimer, when has ANY of your pitiful derivative drivel "pseudo articles" ever been one that’s taken ANY company to a finalist position @ Microsoft Tech Ed, as one of mine for EEC Systems/SuperSpeed.com (via its concepts which they used) in Ms Tech Ed’s HARDEST CATEGORY: SQL Server Performance Enhancement??? Mine have. -------------------------- 4.) What are you doing here on this website Reimer, in the first place???? You admittedly impersonated me on your website, & this is cool to do?? "Anyway the "APK" registered here is just an affectionate clone of the original. In fact I prefer him to the original." - Jeremy Reimer - March 25, 2005 -------------------------- You’re only destroying yourself here, and I know now WHY people are leaving "arsehole technica": Because nutjobs like you run that place! http://www.wowdailynews.com/pegasus/wordpress/index.php "So all the trolls who whine in the forums about Ars “going downhill” can just bite my shiny metal ***, because I know that the people who really matter think we’re cool" - Jeremy Reimer LOL, this is GREAT NEWS TO KNOW - arstechnica is falling apart.. the home of the "arseholes online", lol, couldn’t happen to a worse website, the home of slime like Jeremy Reimer, the wannabe... Thanks for that info. Reimer! -------------------------- RECAP - See, this started first Jeremy Reimer impersonated me on his website... First, Reimer ADMITTEDLY impersonated myself on his website: "Anyway the "APK" registered here is just an affectionate clone of the original. In fact I prefer him to the original." - Jeremy Reimer - March 25, 2005 Then, after I asked him nicely via email to remove it? Reimer pursued me with his friend Jay Little, hux, & others to THIS site... -------------------------- AND, REIMER AND HIS FRIENDS (like hux/Veritas/waarheid (all the SAME PERSON posting under alternate names here to ’support’ Reimer, and failing on EVERY technical point))? "They" (Reimer & his friends posting as MANY diff. names here) started it up here with myself, lol, being CAUGHT POSTING AS OTHERS, to support one another & making HORRENDOUS technical errors as their "alternate guises" because they are weak in this field, & FAKES... Still, NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM could disprove the 15 points I put up in favor of memory optimizers a few pages back, & thru this article’s posts)... And, hux (from Reimer’s forums) as Waarheid AND Veritas here earlier: http://www.wowdailynews.com/pegasus/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=93786&highlight=waarheid&sid=7c20ab802cbc3cec27b800 6f229f9522#93786 "Okay, I have to come clean now... I didn’t want to let the cat out of the bag until the end so this is as good a time as any: I was "Veritas" all along. I was also "waarheid." by hux Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2005 9:19 pm -------------------------- See above, about what THEY had the nerve to accuse ME of, vs. their own mouths admitting to using dirty pool, & posting under alternate guises to "SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER"! lol, WHAT A JOKE! They give away their OWN "std. practice/modus operandi", lol, in their accusations to others... how STUPID can one get? LOL! LOL, & they BUSTED THEMSELVES IN THE ACT (they also did so in the past @ sites like Majorgeeks.com as well)): & then, Reimer started email harassing myself, along with his friend Jay Little! Jay Little (who left some remarkable tidbits you can see a few pages back as to that) here: http://www.windowsitpro.com/articles/index.cfm?articleid=41095&cpage=211#feedbackAnchor Bottom most post there, outlines his behaviour here, and elsewhere (NTCompatible.com & emails to me + more) PLUS his outright stupidity as regards this art & science of computing, @ these levels. As well as Jay Little stating he was some "Exchange Expert" & falling FLAT ON HIS FACE on that account, due to memory fragmentation halting Exchange Servers... (Which "MEMORY OPTIMIZER PROGRAMS" as Dr. Russinovich even notes, CAN STOP FROM HAPPENING & Microsoft even says to use THEIR memory optimizer (crude non-automatic type in clearmem.exe) to stop!) Jay Little then pursued me over to NTCompatible.com, after he humiliated himself here IN FRONT OF HIS WIFE (fat like he) no less, lol... Little went to NTCompatible.com causing trouble there that got he banned (myself as well, for what? I will NEVER know, because I was a decade long member there... & because I did not start it with he, but Jay Little laughingly FINISHED HIMSELF on technical points on RAMDISKS, and IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO as well @ NTCompatible.com) Mind you, quite promptly, while attempting to "exercise his (lack of) technical prowess" as the "self-proclaimed expert" on Exchange lol, & other things computing) vs. posts I had made on those topics? LOL, even another arstechincan, DosFreak an NTCompatible.com moderator, & arstechnica member, told Jay Little he was WRONG on, & the poster agreed with me & went with my suggestions vs. Jay Little’s no less... & about IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO being caused NOT by hardware, but by drivers... In fact - I asked Jay Little to run this by Dr. Russinovich in fact, lol, & he never tried it again. He OUTRIGHT RAN, & especially after CrystalTech.com removed his website for libel & death threats directed my way! ******* "IM NOT REMOVING THE CONTENT. I HAVE HOWEVER BEGUN HOSTING MY WEBSITE ELSEWHERE." - jaylittle - March 31, 2005 & "This battle with APK has taken it’s toll I am afraid." - 4/2/2005 7:47:38 AM jaylittle @ www.jaylittle.com ******* So did petitiononline.com as well for the same childish ’geek angst’ that Jay Little tried: Jay, learn a bit out IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO, buffer overruns/underruns, & before you hassle me ever again or try to on technical material in this field? I was approached BY MICROSOFT & interviewed by they, for a position on their crashdump analysis team in 2003, see here: http://developers.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=155172&cid=13007974 Until you can DO THAT, Jay Little, (have MS come to YOU, not YOU to they as I have) & know more than ASP.NET/VB.NET? -------------------------- BUT, NOW ONTO Jeremy Reimer’s SPECIFICALLY: Reimer’s juvenile & libellous edited photos of myself on his pitiful website: http://www.pegasus3d.com/download/apk.jpg AND, libellous songs about myself as well, which he stole from Southpark (as usual, no fundamental original creativity, only plagiaristic nature)l http://pegasus3d.com/download/apksong2000+++.mp3 ---- Dear Alexander, Please excuse me for the delayed reply.

Thank you for your understanding and patience. Best Regards, Ivaylo Todorov Abuse Department SiteGround.com ---- & ******* "Shaw never contacted me" - Jeremy Reimer - February 11, 2005 ******* Oh, really? Jeremy Reimer, - I am FLAT-OUT CALLING YOU A LIAR! My calling you a liar is based not only on the crap you said on your site about me, impersonating me as well, but also on evidence below (regarding my getting Jeremy Reimer’s ISP to burn him for email harassing me when he was asked to stop, & many times, repeatedly!) THAT was easy to do, & just as a warning to you that I can be a FAR larger pain in your A$$ (Since apparently, it’s the shortest route to your brain) Than you can to me, & apparently your own ISP agreed w/ me you are a pest & have problems mentally: ******* Thank you for your report. Please advise the sender to cease & desist this unwanted communication w/ you & keep this record. If further messages are received after that, we can investigate this further & we will act accordingly. & Hello Mr. Kowalski, we have added this evidence to Jeremy’s tracking ticket... Regards, Acceptable Use Policy Management Team Shaw High-Speed Internet Service Shaw Cablesystems G.P. 2400 - 32nd Avenue N.E. Calgary, Alberta, T2E 9A7 ******* Boys from ARSTECHNICA: I repeatedly here, and on other sites over time, have totally flattened your technical know-how (exposed it as weak here, repeatedly elsewhere too on other sites all noted in this article’s page) & also Reimer’s highschooler libel with EASE! Hey - if I were a TOTAL *****? I’d just create a virus/trojan, and DDOS your pitiful websites, or just do it directly from a computer myself & in 5 minutes? I’d crush your sites, dead... no joke! BUT, unlike you both (email harassers, libellers who had their websites removed by their ISP/BSP & HOSTING PROVIDERS in whole OR part)? I try to obey laws... & just because I have a gun, does NOT mean I just "go & use it"... Especially an ELEPHANT GUN level of knowledge in this field, vs. annoying little FLEAS ilke you both! So... all that proof stated, & aside? Jeremy Reimer? Have some BALLS for once (no wonder you have no kids, you too Jay Little): Answer my 4 simple questions to you, 2 posts up, ok?? APK P.S.=> All I can offer here, for folks having to put up with Jeremy Reimer, & Jay Little’s stupidity (along with other arstechnicans) is this: As to the "APK 12 STEP GUIDE FOR ONLINE SECURITY" VERIFIED BY THE CIS TOOL (by the CENTER FOR INTERNET SECURITY):: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=69de4ce63ba63ec39100e903eb0d616d&p=375355#post375355 Well, if anyone uses it, & IT WORKS (see the image jpeg file for proof)? This is what you get on a multiplatform test of online security in CIS Tool 1.x by "THE CENTER FOR INTERNET SECURITY" & THE PROOF OF POTENTIAL RESULTS YOU CAN GET WITH IT: http://img.techpowerup.org/070618/APK14SecurityPointsCISToolResult84735.jpg Which is a LOT more useful in practice (especially online TODAY/NOWADAYS) than Jeremy Reimer’s "pseudo articles" online (regurgitations, & mere derivative drivel, vs. practical usefulness)... Basically, once you spend 1-2.5 hours tops implementing its suggestions, you get: "Sensor’s show that the object’s hull is SOLID neutronium: A single StarShip cannot combat it!" & "It’s hull is PURE NEUTRONIUM - there is NO KNOWN WAY OF BLASTING THRU IT!" & "The object’s neutronium hull makes sensor readings of its inner mechanism impossible!" (quotes of Mr. Spock, Star Trek original series, episode title: "The Doomsday Machine" & what the 12 steps in that URL will give you, as Windows users for a level of security online) Because using that URL’s tips, for those NOT in the know? WILL GET YOUR SYSTEM UP TO SECURED LEVELS no *NIX (Linux variants/BSD variants/Solaris etc.) have passed in over 20 challenges to *NIX folks I have put up @ SLASHDOT & other LINUX sites, who stated: "(Insert *NIX variant here) is more secure than Windows" It’s my ’return to the readers here’, something useful, for Reimer’s OUTRIGHT STUPIDITY alongside his pals... As far as Windows being INSECURE (it’s not setup as well as it can be in 2000/XP, even Windows Server 2003, YES, and even VISTA)? Well, & it is a lie, kind of like the ones Jeremy Reimer likes to tell & start up. As to Reimer? LOL... he only brought all of what is above, on himself & I hated doing it but I did NOT start it, break the law here or elsewhere in doing so, nor did I support myself via alternate names/logons as Reimer & crew tried... lol, & got caught in, as well as being caught email harassing & libelling too. I had to be their "DOOMSDAY MACHINE" for all of this on their part directed MY way... & I win, on ALL fronts/accounts, like usual vs. they. Now, as far as Phd’s, specifically? I came here, in 2003, after helping THIS article’s author fix a hardcode in his pagedefrag.exe, which he thanked me for in email no less PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THIS ARTICLE no less... (Yet, he has missed 4 more areas of that occuring, & for the same principal for better performance, as pagefile.sys movement to other disks - he missed it in EventLogs placement, via rookie hardcodes of the pagefile.sys location, which he conceded I was correct on, & also EventLogs, which is still hardcoded): Via these areas on the registry? SYSTEM LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\System APPLICATION LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Application SECURITY LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Security (Check the FILE value in each - then, you will have the actual locations of them AND YOU CAN MOVE THEM!) This idea? Works for better performance, by not burdening the main C:\ OS & programs disk (or other drive letter they may be on possibly) with I/O to them. Dr. Russinovich is guilty of that, & not showing here to disprove my points... I can excuse he, but not Reimer! Reimer, who after impersonating me on his website & admitting to it here & there, + keeping up a libel campaign about myself as well for years now? Well, let him enjoy the results above... unbelievable.

This is from an educational institution (where actual professional journalism & writing are taught), where people began questioning Jeremy Reimer’s validity & credibility as a writer, period, here: http://www.cwrl.utexas.edu/node/933 All Reimer does is spit back what others wrote already anyhow. He is an ambulance chaser at best. A mere "hack" reporter. He has no degree or certifications in computer sciences, or years to decades of professional experience in them. Reimer is a fake/fraud/charlatan, no doubt about it. Something a child could put together by using the research & words of others is about the best Jeremy Reimer is capable of. Big deal.

By the way, also, Dr. Russinovich: Joanna Rutkowska also did a "number" on you as well, didn’t she per this article: http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=29 (She set YOU right on your behind, point-blank!) What is it going to take to get you here to disprove EACH of those 15 points above? This is not a lot to ask is it?? Apparently, it is... AND Good JOB Joanna, by ALL means. She’s TRULY something else, & made the "DEFCON" types even go "WoW"... bigtime. Then again, so have I before here @ slashdot, regarding coding: http://it.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=158231&cid=13257227 No big task, pretty simple concept actually... many things in life are simple, but good, like that.

Also, on that LAST note, which I closed on in my last post here with: (Above, regarding SuperSpeed.com/EEC Systems, A CERTIFIED Microsoft Partner by the by! & the good review their wares which I coded some of improving them, got good reviews here in THIS mag by Technical Editor John Enck of this mag for?) WINDOWS NT-Magazine (forerunner of today’s .NET magazine) 1997 (iirc, Oct. issue pg. 83) issue review by Mr. John Enck, a technical editor of this very magazine. (& later, some research article work in an article concerning RAMDisk usages for DB performance I did for them that took them to a finalist position @ Microsoft Tech-Ed in the past & IN THE HARDEST CATEGORY THERE IS, in SQLServer performance enhancement, using their SUPERDISK product with my ideas, via their theories (just like Dr. Russinovich has done iirc, & I too, was approached by MS to work for MS, in 2003 as noted above on THIS page?)) The latter (in SuperCache) improving it, was on PAID CONTRACT to improve the mathematics & algorithm for tuning their SuperCache product which I did, up to a 40% increase in performance in fact, w/ a programmatic addon they shipped w/ their product, & now is incorporated into the main program itself! ? WELL - Here’s more: The "GOOD DOCTOR" is NOT that good apparently, if an "upstart" like me, had to help him now, is he? Some "GURU"... that’s right "HECTOR", I am calling YOU out now. Show yourself, disprove that list of 15 points vs. what you write in this article... what a coward. (The facts I am about to post, to show you are not the only person here that has accomplished some things of note in this field, but I have as well? They are posted on last page, but put here too (before they get deleted, right?)) Yes, just like my posts were prior to page 180 here until I exposed whoever’s doing it over @ slashdot for it & that stopped that, cold which I point out in my last post, above: WINDOWS MAGAZINE, 1997, "Top Freeware & Shareware of the Year" issue page 210, #1/first entry in fact (my work is there) PC-WELT FEB 1998 - page 84, again, my work is featured there PC-WELT FEB 1999 - page 83, again, my work is featured there CHIP Magazine 7/99 - page 100, my work is there WINDOWS MAGAZINE, WINTER 1998 - page 92, insert section, MUST HAVE WARES, my work is again, there GERMAN PC BOOK, Data Becker publisher "PC Aufrusten und Repairen" my work is contained in it HOT SHAREWARE Numero 46 issue, pg. 54 (PC ware mag from Spain), my work is there, first one featured, yet again! (There’s others too, from shareware/freeware mags outta the UK in 2002-2004, but the list above will do fine.) I mean - Compared to Jeremy "post as others, along with his pals Jay Little/MrJay, Starkruzr/jtd/Jarrett DeAngelis, hux/waarheid/veritas" Reimer (who has no degree or even cert in this field, much less actual hands on experience in it as a coder or network admin/tech) & his "derivative drivel" regurgiation of others’ words, like some HACK reporter @ best? Oh, I think it will do, nicely enough, ontop of the shenanigans about Jeremy Reimer & his pals above, for law breaking & impersonating others online (including myself, but also proven here as posting as others too). All I can say is this: DISPROVE THE LIST OF 15 POINTS ABOVE, vs. YOUR POINTS Dr. Russinovich, ESPECIALLY YOU! Quit being a damn coward for God’s sake, & let’s finish this in a direct discussion of my points. These others from arstechnica are HISTORY now, for a number of reasons noted above, & YOU are all that is left, & YOU ARE NOT THAT GOOD, point-blank, for ALL of the reasons above... you are overrated. PROVE OTHERWISE. Or, was this a lie: I came here, in 2003, after helping THIS article’s author fix a hardcode in his pagedefrag.exe, which he thanked me for in email no less PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THIS ARTICLE no less... (Yet, he has missed 4 more areas of that occuring, & for the same principal for better performance, as pagefile.sys movement to other disks - he missed it in EventLogs placement, via rookie hardcodes of the pagefile.sys location, which he conceded I was correct on, & also EventLogs, which is still hardcoded): Via these areas on the registry? SYSTEM LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\System APPLICATION LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Application SECURITY LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Security (Check the FILE value in each - then, you will have the actual locations of them AND YOU CAN MOVE THEM!) This idea? Works for better performance, by not burdening the main C:\ OS & programs disk (or other drive letter they may be on possibly) with I/O to them. Dr. Russinovich is guilty of that, & not showing here to disprove my points Is the fact Dr. Russinovich (whom I call "HECTOR" now, per the film TROY) uses disassemblers & DLL Injection to seem "famous" a lie too, & in his hacking apart the Window NT based OS native NTapi/ZwAPI largely, above what the DDK gave him?? How about the fact MANY of your programs or articles are "co-writes" & use Bryce Cogswell, OR David Solomon as your lackeys, while YOU get the credit? Man, I must ask this since you work @ MS: Are you the same nationality or related to Steve Ballmer, by the way? (this I am MOST curious on)... Is Jeremy Reimer as well? I wonder, because his posts are NOT deleted here @ all, yet others asked last page WHY he is not banned here? I mean, how OBVIOUS can you get? Something’s up... lol! I have to ask... are you 2 related or something?? I mean Jeremy Reimer? He’s a KNOWN idiot online, see the above, & all thru this post, after all, who impersonates others, is a KNOWN "troll" online, along with his friends (is there ANY doubting my evidences of that above) & educational institution’s members WILL NOT CITE him as credible, noted above as well? Give us a damn break... face my points Dr. Russinovich. APK P.S.=> By the way, anytime you write this as your article’s topic, and call authors of any program "upstarts" Dr., as you did at your article’s termination, using THIS as your topic: "Don’t believe the hype. At best, RAM optimizers have no effect. At worst, they seriously degrade performance" I’ll put that statement of yours above, vs. my 15 points above (many mine, backed by IBM, Microsoft, & others data here) anytime... especially considering you evade replying (though you replied FAST when I spotted your ROOKIE HARDCODES in email with me I had to SHOW you how to fix, and why, which you agreed with & thanked me for no less) & the fact you had your admins (or, was it you?) who deleted many of my early posts here (yet Reimer the plagiarizer/charlatan/libeller/email harasser etc. has all his blatherings in place here still)? "INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW"... Additionally: How’s that topic/premise of yours stand up, vs. my 15 points above? Not well, per your running AND hiding from them, & not all of your arstechnica humpty dumpties can put it together again, now can they? This article’s usually the top 1-6 most VIEWED here... think you’re putting up a GOOD showing Dr. Russinovich? Your arstechnica buddies (posting as others to bolster one another & being CAUGHT FOR IT NO LESS, lol, via their own admissions of it & some "detective work" of my own) aren’t!]]>APKTue, 07 Aug 2007 02:18:14 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchorhttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchorTue, 07 Aug 2007 01:18:35 GMT
LOL: I just noted this today (where I began posting an enumerated list of points here Dr. Russinovich can’t disprove, & neither can the arstechnica bunch here): PRIOR TO PAGE 180, where I exposed them for deleting my posts here on this forums, over @ SLASHDOT? My posts are all gone, lol... GOOD SHOWING, Dr. Russinovich (NOT). Good showing in your hardcodes too, lol, which I had to point out to you, the GURU... not! Buddy, that shows YOU BLOW, basically. Why is it also, that you NEVER had anything of note YOURSELF, & had to do work with either BRYCE COGSWELL, or DAVID SOLOMON, for instance? I think you CAN’T think for yourself, as well as take credit for the work of others, ontop of using disassembly & passing it off as "amazing", lol! Facts are facts, disprove my list of 15 points, Mr. MICROSOFT... or, just keeping making a ’fame’ of yours, using disassemblers (like any hacker/.cracker does, passing off your ’discoveries" as something special, lol, not). APK P.S.=> Man... shameful of you Dr. Mark Russinovich, AND your editors here as well or webmaster (whoever is/was doing that)... Imo, @ least, & those I know that read this page, & my 15 points vs. your article? That’s it’s right up there with Jeremy Reimer & crew’s impersonating me & libelling me on their websites! (No "editing that out now" is there, now that his & his friends ISP/BSP’s & HOSTING PROVIDERS plus law enforcement have this all on record now in regards to Reimer’s impersonating me on his website, libelling me, & death threats from Jay Little & Evil_Merlin (on reimer’s site) - ALL REMOVED by force too, by their ISP/BSP’s or HOSTING PROVIDERS) ---- My 15 points for you to disprove (OR, anyone else, since none of you have managed to) again, are here: 1.) Microsoft shows memory fragmentation causes Exchange Server 2003 (& prior versions) problems a lot (which memory optimizers stop, & even Dr Russinovich + Arstechnica even admit they can stop memory fragmentation)! ******* Mark Russinovich - "Having contiguous available memory can improve performance in one case: when the Memory Manager, to maximize the behavior of the CPU memory caches, uses a mechanism called page coloring to decide which page from the free or zeroed page list to assign to a process." Mark Russinovich - "Developers of RAM optimizers also claim that their products defragment memory. The act of allocating, then freeing a large amount of virtual memory might, as a conceivable side effect, lead to blocks of contiguous available memory" ******* XADM: The Extensible Storage Engine Database Engine Contributes to Virtual Memory Fragmentation Exchange 2000 Server, like many large scale programs, may experience virtual memory (VM) fragmentation. Over time, the server may not perform well, & you may not be able to mount storage groups because of VM fragmentation. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324118 XADM: You Experience Excessive Virtual Memory Fragmentation on a Heavily Loaded Exchange Server Your Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server computer may experience virtual memory fragmentation at a much greater frequency than you expect. As a result, you may have to restart the Exchange 2000 computer more frequently than you expect. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;828934 (& 10 more I can supply on request. Earlier, I cite more in the way of examples here showing in how much VM fragmentation (which memory optimizers stop) negatively affects Exchange Server 2003 & previous models of it. I can provide those again upon request should they be required. I have earlier in this thread.) ---- 2.) Microsoft producing clearmem.exe (which its description IS "Clear Memory" even in Windows Server 2003 reskits) & is in its default commandline, just another memory optimizer (as this article’s author calls them)! DESCRIPTION (verbatim, from Microsoft’s resource kit website) = Clearmem.exe: Clear Memory Not a "testing tool": ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - "Clearmem is *not* a fixing system, it is a tool for developers & testers." - Anonymous User - April 04, 2005 ******* (Point #3 right after this one shows otherwise as well as Microsoft’s OWN DESCRIPTION of said program above.) ---- 3.) Also how memory optimizer apps can unfreeze lagged/frozen memory starved apps, such as how Microsoft’s own Clearmem.exe unfroze apps & was cited from MS as being useful here: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;234339 "WORKAROUND You can run Clearmem.exe to recover from this problem. The Clearmem utility flushes the section used as file cache, thus the file object in question is dereferenced by running Clearmem." Above all - If these tools of this nature are "useless" as Dr. Mark Russinovich claims? Why then does Microsoft, the inventor of this OS family, include clearmem.exe (a memory optimizer, albeit a bit crude in console/DOS commandline/character mode design & not nearly as feature-laden & automated) in their current resource kits for said OS’ & since the NT 3.5x days no less? (&, before anyone tries the "they are unsupported by Microsoft", newsflash - it does not mean they don’t work, they do. It’s that Microsoft’s technical support reps are not required to know them in detail or how to use them etc.) ---- 4.) Memory & diskcache freeup (which memory optimizers do forcing the VM subsystem to work globally & uniquely in mine messaging each app to do so from its discardeables) from the OS’ native filesystem cache (which helps IBM DB/2) & IBM DB/2 mag backs this up below: ******* Mark Russinovich - "Although gaining more available memory might seem beneficial, it isn’t." ******* OH, really? Read this: http://www.db2mag.com/qanda/030318.shtml "minimize the operating system’s use of memory for file caching. By doing so, you maximize DB2’s working set memory for buffer pools, sort heaps, & lock lists." &, what did Mike-Rowe Sarft say? Let’s requote him, shall we?? Here we go: ******* Mike Rowe-Sarft - ""If free memory is the enemy of performance?" What a ridiculous assumption - who said it was" - Anonymous User - April 14, 2005 ******* Dr. Russinovich himself, & the first replier to this article in Henry Mason: ******* "I have just one comment: Free memory is the enemy of true performance" - Henry Mason - January 23, 2004 ******* I quote BOTH above - "RTFA"! To Mr. Mason, I suggest you read my reply here as well. Drink it in, & digest it. ******* "If you could provide a range of successful examples of how a ram "optimizer" could actually benefit me as a power user or programmer or DB admin, I’d love to hear them" - amos_olson - August 11, 2004 ******* ’Ask & ye shall receive AMOS OLSON’: read the above excerpt from IBM DB/2 Magazine & the ones regarding Exchange Server (point #1) from Microsoft themselves above it also, as well as the rest of my 14 points here! ---- 5.) VERY IRONICALLY: A partial excerpt from arstechnica, stating that memory optimization techniques are useful (supplementing the VM fragmentation problems Dr. Russinovich concedes these programs prevent, especially w/ Exchange Server): (Regarding memory optimization/heap compaction uses, & alot of that article? Seems to ’bite off’ of article #1 @ NTCompatible.com which I authored back in 1997-1998 as well: ah, the originality of arstechnica, NOT!) Anyhow: http://arstechnica.com/guides/tweaks/memory-1.ars/2 ******* "What is actually occurring when one ’defragments’ the system memory is a dumping of main memory to the page file, forcing the computer to reload all of the active information into memory. In computing terms, this is called Heap Compaction, or Garbage Collection. You can use a small, Visual Basic program to perform this action. Simply open up a new file in notepad, input the line Mystring = Space(16000000), & save the file w/ the .vbs extension. Assuming you have the Visual Basic runtime libraries installed on your computer (they’re installed by default by Win2k), when you execute this file it will flush the system memory. This is particularly useful after running a program w/ a known memory leak - it can be used to discard the leaked space & allow other programs to use that portion of memory again. If you have a large amount of system memory, you may wish to consider using a higher number w/in the brackets of the visual basic script - I have tested values up to 80000000 w/out any problems on my system. Using a higher number should more effectively purge the system memory of leaked space." ******* Problem is? That VB-interpreted code mystring SPACE array allocate, write, deallocate would be TOO slow when compared to myself doing it in pure inlined assembler code & in combination w/ Delphi & does not automatically ’sense’ how much to allocate/write/deallocate either! E.G.-> One of my testers (A Mr. John M. Mijo) can most likely second that, if you would like to write & inquire w/ him on it Jeremy Reimer, here is his email: John M. Mijo [jmmijo@comcast.net] Mr. Mijo ran "APK RamCharge 2002++ SR-1" (Delphi + ASM code) vs. "FreeRAM" (not sure what language this one was written in but, I would guess the usuals: C++ or VB coded)! Here were his comments on that comparison & the proof of my statements above from that tester of my program’s results - &, Here’s what he stated about it, as well as giving me suggestions on how to make mine better via a VERY good feature addition he felt was needed & suggested - "I do notice how much faster yours runs"... (My program, APK RamCharge 2002++ SR-1, vs. FreeRAM, the competitor program he tested my work against per his findings in head-to-head tests, verbatim, from email to me during tests the past 2-3 months now prior to re-release for Summer 2005). So, feel free to write him yourself if you like Jeremy Reimer! Just as your pal Jay Little did regarding "APK Registry Cleaning Engine" here in fact, to a Mr. Phil Atherton (another one of my testers) & got a GREAT review of it from him about my work. ******* From: "Phil Atherton" Reply-To: To: "’Alexander Kowalski’" I’ve built 2 machines, WinXP Pro SP1 on an Athlon 2800+ system & MediaCentre 2005 on a 3.0GHz P4 system. I had installed Regcleaner 4.3 by Juoni Vuorio on both machines. Regcleaner didn’t work on my MediaCentre PC (it is an OEM machine which I have rebuilt a number of times & tried regcleaner each time but I suspect there’s some OEM gubbins in the Windows set-up that’s causing some instability) BUT your cleaner worked on both. I’m not surprised w/ the APK simple install arrangement. I regularly clean my machines using simple tools, Regcleaner, Norton System Works, X-Setup Pro, Windows Defrag, etc. After running these I immediately tried the APK cleaner to see whether it picked up any additional registry errors, & it found 39! It regularly finds approx 20 more that Regcleaner & takes approx 18 minutes to do the job to Regcleaner’s 5 mins. This is what I would expect as I have a large number of apps installed (approx 36 including Office XP Pro, AutoCAD 2004, etc) & is not surprising if the cleaner is to do its job properly. I do believe I can tell the difference in the operating speed of the machine afterwards. (Slight) I am impressed. Phil Atherton Senior Consultant - Communication Systems ******* That was a real swat in Jay Little’s face publicly here! After all, as usual: Arstechnica only gets what they asked for, their just desserts. Especially when Jay Little wrote him & got this for a reply (which Mr. Atherton sent/forwarded to me): ******* Hi Jay: I am certainly using the APK cleaner & have been having some good results w/ it. I have put the tool’s author on copy of this mail so that he can respond to your request Jay. Good luck & happy cleaning!! Phil Atherton ******* Should Jeremy Reimer write Mr. Mijo, to ask if I am quoting his words directly from email regarding "APK RamCharge"? WELL, I am CERTAIN the result would be the same as it was for Jay Little when he wrote Mr. Phil Atherton regarding "APK Registry Cleaning Engine": Excellent. ---- 6.) Along w/ point #2 & #3, also in the example Martin Meszaros pointed out to me in email regarding the XNews newsreader problem he had which my "APK RamCharge" fixed for him. "I was downloading binaries from newsgroups, using Xnews newsreader. Xnews likes to keep all headers in ram, it only saves them to disk when closing the program. So here I am w/ 1 gig of memory usage,(my machine physically has 768 MB) & 4 physical megs of ram free for everything else. My system was CRAWLING. I fire up ramcharge, set for 128, I notice it snags 128 MB, fording other stuff off ram into pagefile, & then lets go. Whammy I got about 150 MB physical ram free & the machine stopped its crawling. this is an ingenious ram clearing strategy, & I don’t believe any of the other crap "ram optimisers" do it this way. Martin Meszaros, MCSE, MCP+I, CNA" ---- 7.) The example of network copying of HUGE files/folders example one person provided which a memory optimizer cured also from the longer 10 points & examples list I provided above. "there are some bugs in the Memory Management. In some Posibilities the Cache Manager will grow & grow & will not Release RAM. This could cause a Systemcrash. You can test it by your Self, take a System w/ a lot off files & try to copy them over a Networkshare w/ the Explorer. The RAM used for Cache Manager will grow & grow & the System do not release this RAM because it has noth enough time to do it. In some cases (very fast Harddisks & Network, other treads that needs Systemperformance like Virus-Scanner) the System will Crash complete w/ errors like 1020, Noth enough Ram, e.g. The only way to prevent a Systemcrash is to force the System to free the Cachemanager. MK hacki01 -August 02, 2004" ---- 8.) Regarding games having more free RAM prior to play to stop lag in game - memory optimzer programs being used before loading the game to free RAM to stop that, & other hesitations which, again, 1 second of that can KILL you. You cannot evade shots taken @ you in effect if you are chained down because the game is out of RAM & has to page in more of its own data due to memory starvations. "For gamers forcing other processes out of memory to the VM is a good thing. Not everyone likes to use Task Manager to End Processs. Players of Planetside & other games will agree the more memory the better. If your claim that more Available Memory not being beneficial was correct, w/ regards to gaming, then most all Gamers (who lead the push for higher end PC parts)are all wrong for running 1Gb + of memory to increase performance. We should all be happy as clams w/ 512Mb as we can just page everything to VM & run it from there. If you decide to argue that gamers don’t make up a large portion of the computing community you again would be wrong. Its a multiBillion dollar industry that is only getting bigger as time goes on. I will agree a desktop user running Word, Browswers, email, etc prob wouldn’t find these Utilities useful, I think they can have a place of usefulness in the gaming Community for games we love that happen to be RAM HOGS. Greg Waggoner -June 13, 2004" ---- 9.) "Criticism is good but do you have solution for freeing RAM when my comp is slow w/ 512 MB of RAM? If it’s true that memory management frees up my RAM after process exit, why is my RAM so occupied? Windows is not as perfect as you write in your article. They also have many bugs & some of your claims are not true at all" - Miro, June 14, 2004 Yet another layer of icing on the cake also. Another replier here questioning the veracity & accuracy of Dr. Russinovich’s article above. ---- 10.) "memory managers provide a bit of forward-planning that Windows doesn’t have: if I want 10MB available for a busy app to grab w/out waiting, then it should be there. I shouldn’t have to wait at a critical moment in the execution my app while Windows fiddles w/ RAM & writes a whole load of stuff to disk. That can happen when the app is less busy. That’s what my memory manager does for me." - Donn Edwards - July 07, 2004 ---- 11.) "I completely agree w/ Donn Edwards’ post dated July 7th. Windows cannot foresee what a user will be doing next & this is what Mark Russinovich has ignored." - Heinz.Wehner - July 30, 2004 ---- 12.) "brute-forcing pages out of physical memory might actually improve performance of some applications." - Andreas -June 11, 2004 I agree Andreas, & showed a few such examples above, along w/ others here whom I quoted as well! Why do you think this other poster, whom I cite next below in point #13, wrote this earlier also: ---- 13.) "APK is right." - Jeremy A+, BA Comp Sci Anonymous User -April 15, 2005 Here IS why - First of all, Dr. Mark Russinovich was WAY too "absolute" here in this article, imo, & didn’t cover scenarios like: E.G. from above -> IBM DB/2 database engine being adversely affected by the native OS cache & its double buffering negative effect on performance. Freeing memory from other apps & the system cache for IBM DB/2?? By NO MEANS its enemy as shown above from their own magazine & forums articles. As well as virtual memory fragmentation adversely affecting Exchange Server 2003 negatively which Dr. Russinovich admits that memory optimizers CAN prevent, also shown above. ---- 14.) "Actually a memory optimizer is really necessary (I mean that a memory optimizer must be installed in order to complete this task) is using virtual machines on computers that don’t have extraordinarily huge amounts of RAM." - NetRolller 3D December 15, 2005 ---- 15.) Additionally/Lastly, Dr. Russinovich’s own mistakes in pagedefrag.exe which still contains rookie type hardcodes as to the location of the EventLogs, which also like pagefile.sys (which I pointed out to him & he corrected pagedefrag.exe 2.20 & above for thanking me for in email no less & understood why) can be moved via the registry locations for them! This is done to gain more performance by not having I/O occurring in them contend w/ other I/O from programs & the OS on the C:\ drive. It’s easy to do via some native NtAPI calls like (lol, the irony of this is amazing, the guy that hacked up the native NtAPI via disassembly tools/debuggers OR Dll Injection, didn’t know how to use the very calls in question in code & practical application & INSTEAD, hardcoded): NtCreateKey NtOpenKey NtEnumerateKey NtEnumerateValueKey NtQueryValueKey To read the PROPER values for the paths for the files EventLog actually uses from here in the registry on its left-hand side items tree paths: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Eventlog Reading its subkeys of Application, System, & Security (& others if you use DHCP server service etc.) for their right-hand side pane actual FILE values. Someone should write him about that & have him fix it. I did a few times, & warned him about arstech’s antics also. I also asked him to come & disprove my 10 points list posted earlier, & DO still challenge him to disprove the 14 points above. Dr. Russinovich is STILL, a "no show" here & anyone Wonder WHY THAT IS? (I mean, He replied nearly IMMEDIATELY once I pointed out his hardcode errors regarding C:\pagefile.sys being hardcoded into pagedefrag.exe version 2.20 & below via email... why not here, & now on this material?) Is that telling anyone here anything obvious?? Like perhaps, he realizes he overlooked a great deal of scenarios where these types of programs are useful, that he is in error in this article’s statements (in addition to his own work in pagedefrag.exe) & that he should not have called anyone "upstart" etc. either in his article’s termination paragraphs??? E.G.-> This particular hardcoded set of errors I note? They simply illustrate the man’s NOT perfect or some "god of programming" most of all! Fact is, nobody is either of those. Since here in this article, he talks about programs that improve or deter performance, as this article is about? He had best get better @ it, because his own work doesn’t illustrate perfection of knowledge here in that area by any means. It shows ROOKIES’ levels of error, not PhD calibre levels of performance in this area before he rather arrogantly calls this type of of program "useless" & authors of them "upstarts"! Some types of error, especially if you are as well known as this author is imo? ARE inexcusable, such as the hardcodes I noted. However, MORESO, in the namecalling he did in this article @ it’s termination paragraph, & also being absent, avoiding directly disproving my list of 14 points above as well, though I wrote him DIRECTLY several times to do so. I can make assumptions & call names too (BUT, based on facts), since his article does about myself & others that have created memory optimization programs for Windows GUI environs as well: IMO, anyone that uses SoftIce, Windows Debugger, OR DLL Injection techniques to disassemble the work of others (which he wrote me he tried on my work YEARS ago, but there is a few ways to check for the presence of debuggers (SoftIce too) & make your code do anything you like to mess them up & I use them) or to disassemble the Native NtAPI calls for the Operating Systems in the Windows NT-based family as the author of this article has (above what the DDK gave him) & turning it into a career? It’s one built upon "industrial espionage", rather than actual brilliance. If ’cracking/hacking’ apart the Native NtAPI doesn’t also point to this, as well as him trying it on my own work back in the mid 90’s & admitting it to me in email? WHICH BOTH CASES DO?? I rest my case on that, point-blank. On the "difficulty/complexity" of some of his work? Well, e.g.-> The IntToHex/HexToInt & HostName apps?? Either one, I have written in 1/2 a day’s time, TOPS. I note also, for example, that his "ProcessExplorer" program seems to be a combination of the functions of Windows Taskmgr.exe & also the MS reskit PView.exe (ProcessExploder) apps. Nothing REALLY fundamentally original there, just a combination of the best features/capabilities of both. He creates device drivers & may be QUITE good @ it, etc. but, question is, what kind? I’ll tell you: Filtering drivers. Creating those, entails MUCH less difficulty involved doing those than ones that actually communicate w/ hardware ASICS & other circuitry. The MS DDK gives you 99% of what you need for those! You operate on a mini-driver model & for filtering drivers? CAKEWALK! No, it may fool the "noobz" & network administrators, saying it’s "Low-Level" coding, but it doesn’t fool me. The irony here in this point is that Dr. Russinovich cracked (via DLL Injection, Debuggers, & tools like SoftIce) a great deal of the body of the Nt Native API, & yet fails to use it properly in pagedefrag.exe because eventlogs locations are hardcoded in it! That, in & of itself, IS very "rookie" quality level in said work. That program particularly in question? IS Pagedefrag.exe! It is one that is supposed to boost system performance. Well, since pagedefrag.exe 2.32 STILL misses the TRUE locations of the eventlogs files in order to make them contiguous for better read/write I/O for system output as well as program outputs into it (or possibly, reads)? How is pagedefrag.exe 2.32 (latest model) improving performance in that portion then, if it cannot spot the actual TRUE locations of the eventlogs files period?? Nuff said on THAT account. ALSO - Paging isn’t "bad" like it’s made to sound by Dr. Russinovich! It’s a CONSTANTLY ongoing process & you can’t avoid it. It’s what modern multitasking VM using OS’, do! When viewed from a single app’s perspective it might be, but not in the overall memory mgt. schema of modern Os’. Apps also have discardable memory, especially after init. launch! They get paged to pagefile.sys in data & resources, & do NOT always access all of them! IN FACT, try this experiment: (As it illustrates what I allude to above & how apps run w/ large tracts of themself paged to disk): In taskmgr.exe processes tab w/ ALL memory-related columns selected from taskmgr.exe’s VIEW menu, Select Columns submenu of options. Then, minimize ANY windowed app on your desktop! You’ll see any app eats more memory on initial load & instancing, & less once minimized & usually they will not consume as much, EVER again provided you don’t use EVERY single feature of the app & most folks do not @ one sitting! Also, & what gets paged? Very often stays paged, unless paged resources are called up from disk (tabbed-interfaced programs are good examples of this in fact). It’s a normal function of this OS & memory mgt. schema, just like any Virtual Memory Operating System does! This also holds true w/ libraries called as well. They only load what they need from their exports functions tables, & that is all. Also, because pagefile.sys read/writes are memory mgr. driven (Ring 0/RPL0/kernel process priority)? They occur VERY fast, & get precedence over other usermode disk oriented I/O, & plus again, iirc, the pagefile.sys is written "raw" and bypasses the filesystem, & that occurs faster than normal read/writes do! Mark may have to correct ME on this last point, but it is what I recall of it. This even gets BETTER & more efficient, once pagefile.sys is moved to another 2nd harddisk (or like I do, to a solid-state RamDisk CENATEK ’rocketdrive’ 2gb unit, along w/ temp ops, cookies, logging, & more from apps/OS). The Memory manager thru VM Allocation (4gb space, 1/2 to app, & 1/2 to system (typical w/out boot.ini /3gb switch in place used))?? Pages large tracts of an app TO DISK! (Especially one w/ HUGE initial StackSizes (this typically gives an app more stability & room to work in/less chance of abend/crash/app failure (well, up to a point like anything else, there is a return on investment curve)). You will see (if you check off the MemUsage & VMSize columns to view in the PROCESSES section of taskmgr.exe) this all in fact. You only use what you NEED & when it’s summoned. If you only use small part of an app? You’ll never use all of it. When loading apps OR dll’s, it is not an "all or nothing" load into RAM (physical RAM) w/ apps OR shared code like DLL’s loaded/called/marshalled/instanced by an app either! You only get what you need to put into memory on a demand paged basis, & as the portion of a program or shared code object (like DLLs) are summoned by you the end user. Again - This holds true for shared DLL code as well (since so much of windows uses this model). Even if shared by diff. apps. DLL’s (shared objects) also get ’demand paged’ & only take into RAM what is needed by apps calling their library of functions! Only things I know of that don’t get paged to disk (by default &/or by registry hack alterations)? Device Drivers code & possibly functions of the OS when certain registry hacks are applied! ---- E.G./NEWFLASH -> Mr. Russinovich isn’t the only person here that’s done a load of work that’s done well both commercially & in freeware/sharewware out there, or who has had his ideas do well @ Microsoft Tech Ed etc.! (E.G.-> Where mine applied YEARS ago no less @ tech-ed 2000 & 2001 consecutively when applied, improved SQL Server performance & had SuperSpeed.com/EEC Systems place as a finalist 2 years in a row in that hardest of all categories: SQL Server Performance Enhancement! That was utilizing SuperDisk-NT for this & ideas in an article for them which I wrote up the ’creative uses of ramdisks’: http://www.functional-it.com/ramdisk.htm Article & its ideas! Which on their website (a famous entity in this field) were featured alongside one of this mag’s own technical editors, a Mr. John Enck! They have been there on that companies’ homepage for years (a decade), & now @ said website (& is now cited on MANY websites such as the one above for bettering performance on computer systems using such tools, not only in theory, but in practice) That, & my improvement of their BEST product, imo, SuperCache by up to 40% better thru reprogramming its engine/algorithm & mathematics for that (Both apps reviewed well in this magazine’s own pages, as Windows NT Magazine, entitled "Back Office Performance" pg.61 April 1997 issue), which I did on a paid job for them, & a pleasure working w/ them no less. That’s a "WEE bit better" than mere simple historical regurgitations of already known knowledge, as it actually gets others better performance & is applied. In fact, MUCH better than Jeremy Reimer’s "termpaper essays" a highschool kid could research & write up over @ arstechnica. The results speak for themselves there on that account.

FOR EVERYONE’S REFERENCE READING HERE, & WHY I AM CONFRONTING JEREMY REIMER OF ARSTECHNICA HERE ON THIS WEBSITE: (Mainly because Jeremy Reimer came here, never has posted ON TOPIC here once, & mainly to annoy me, got himself caught for email harassing myself, had parts of his website removed for libelling myself, & his friend Jay Little did in his ENTIRE SITE being removed @ both CrystalTech.com & petitiononline.com (his hosting providers)) Sounds stupid/crazy? It is on their parts, as it is their reputation in this field, but proof of it ALL, is below: This all happening? Well, because Reimer is an idiot & would never do this? I will - For their behaviors here, which I have to apologize for the arstechnica idiots...? I am going to let this fool Reimer destroy his own credibility in the eyes of others which HAS already started, per this quote, via his lies, libel, childishness, AND stupidity in this field especially: http://www.cwrl.utexas.edu/node/933 "As for Reimer’s credibility, I would never cite his article in a paper." - Submitted by roboninja hats on Wed, 09/13/2006 - 3:24am. Simply by exposing him for a KNOW NOTHING in this field, despite his "arstechnica article (hack reporter) status", lol & also his lawbreaking habits (email harassment, libel, etc.). See this quote from Bruce Perens (a respected person in this field) and think otherwise: http://bsd.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=229865&cid=18647947 "Justified anger is better than sitting aside while bad stuff happens" - by Bruce Perens (3872) February 07, @09:49PM --- RECAP - See, this started first Jeremy Reimer impersonated me on his website... First, Reimer ADMITTEDLY impersonated myself on his website: "Anyway the "APK" registered here is just an affectionate clone of the original. In fact I prefer him to the original." - Jeremy Reimer - March 25, 2005 Then, after I asked him nicely via email to remove it? Reimer pursued me with his friend Jay Little, hux, & others to THIS site... AND, REIMER AND HIS FRIENDS (like hux/Veritas/waarheid (all the SAME PERSON posting under alternate names here to ’support’ Reimer, and failing on EVERY technical point))? "They" (Reimer & his friends posting as MANY diff. names here) started it up here with myself, lol, being CAUGHT POSTING AS OTHERS, to support one another & making HORRENDOUS technical errors as their "alternate guises" because they are weak in this field, & FAKES... Still, NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM could disprove the 15 points I put up in favor of memory optimizers a few pages back, & thru this article’s posts)... And, hux (from Reimer’s forums) as Waarheid AND Veritas here earlier: http://www.wowdailynews.com/pegasus/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=93786&highlight=waarheid&sid=7c20ab802cbc3cec27b800 6f229f9522#93786 "Okay, I have to come clean now...

As well as Jay Little stating he was some "Exchange Expert" & falling FLAT ON HIS FACE on that account, due to memory fragmentation halting Exchange Servers... (Which "MEMORY OPTIMIZER PROGRAMS" as Dr. Russinovich even notes, CAN STOP FROM HAPPENING & Microsoft even says to use THEIR memory optimizer (crude non-automatic type in clearmem.exe) to stop!) Jay Little then pursued me over to NTCompatible.com, after he humiliated himself here IN FRONT OF HIS WIFE (fat like he) no less, lol... Little went to NTCompatible.com causing trouble there that got he banned (myself as well, for what? I will NEVER know, because I was a decade long member there... & because I did not start it with he, but Jay Little laughingly FINISHED HIMSELF on technical points on RAMDISKS, and IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO as well @ NTCompatible.com) Mind you, quite promptly, while attempting to "exercise his (lack of) technical prowess" as the "self-proclaimed expert" on Exchange lol, & other things computing) vs. posts I had made on those topics? LOL, even another arstechincan, DosFreak an NTCompatible.com moderator, & arstechnica member, told Jay Little he was WRONG on, & the poster agreed with me & went with my suggestions vs. Jay Little’s no less... & about IRQL_LESS_THAN_OR_EQUAL_TO being caused NOT by hardware, but by drivers...

So... all that proof stated, & aside? Jeremy Reimer? Have some BALLS for once (no wonder you have no kids, you too Jay Little): Answer my 4 simple questions to you, 2 posts up, ok?? APK P.S.=> All I can offer here, for folks having to put up with Jeremy Reimer, & Jay Little’s stupidity (along with other arstechnicans) is this: As to the "APK 12 STEP GUIDE FOR ONLINE SECURITY" VERIFIED BY THE CIS TOOL (by the CENTER FOR INTERNET SECURITY):: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=69de4ce63ba63ec39100e903eb0d616d&p=375355#post375355 Well, if anyone uses it, & IT WORKS (see the image jpeg file for proof)? This is what you get on a multiplatform test of online security in CIS Tool 1.x by "THE CENTER FOR INTERNET SECURITY" & THE PROOF OF POTENTIAL RESULTS YOU CAN GET WITH IT: http://img.techpowerup.org/070618/APK14SecurityPointsCISToolResult84735.jpg Which is a LOT more useful in practice (especially online TODAY/NOWADAYS) than Jeremy Reimer’s "pseudo articles" online (regurgitations, & mere derivative drivel, vs. practical usefulness)... Basically, once you spend 1-2.5 hours tops implementing its suggestions, you get: "Sensor’s show that the object’s hull is SOLID neutronium: A single StarShip cannot combat it!" & "It’s hull is PURE NEUTRONIUM - there is NO KNOWN WAY OF BLASTING THRU IT!" & "The object’s neutronium hull makes sensor readings of its inner mechanism impossible!" (quotes of Mr. Spock, Star Trek original series, episode title: "The Doomsday Machine" & what the 12 steps in that URL will give you, as Windows users for a level of security online) Because using that URL’s tips, for those NOT in the know? WILL GET YOUR SYSTEM UP TO SECURED LEVELS no *NIX (Linux variants/BSD variants/Solaris etc.) have passed in over 20 challenges to *NIX folks I have put up @ SLASHDOT & other LINUX sites, who stated: "(Insert *NIX variant here) is more secure than Windows" It’s my ’return to the readers here’, something useful, for Reimer’s OUTRIGHT STUPIDITY alongside his pals... As far as Windows being INSECURE (it’s not setup as well as it can be in 2000/XP, even Windows Server 2003, YES, and even VISTA)? Well, & it is a lie, kind of like the ones Jeremy Reimer likes to tell & start up. As to Reimer? LOL... he only brought all of what is above, on himself & I hated doing it but I did NOT start it, break the law here or elsewhere in doing so, nor did I support myself via alternate names/logons as Reimer & crew tried... lol, & got caught in, as well as being caught email harassing & libelling too. I had to be their "DOOMSDAY MACHINE" for all of this on their part directed MY way... & I win, on ALL fronts/accounts, like usual vs. they. Now, as far as Phd’s, specifically? I came here, in 2003, after helping THIS article’s author fix a hardcode in his pagedefrag.exe, which he thanked me for in email no less PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THIS ARTICLE no less... (Yet, he has missed 4 more areas of that occuring, & for the same principal for better performance, as pagefile.sys movement to other disks - he missed it in EventLogs placement, via rookie hardcodes of the pagefile.sys location, which he conceded I was correct on, & also EventLogs, which is still hardcoded): Via these areas on the registry? SYSTEM LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\System APPLICATION LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Application SECURITY LOG: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Eventlog\Security (Check the FILE value in each - then, you will have the actual locations of them AND YOU CAN MOVE THEM!) This idea? Works for better performance, by not burdening the main C:\ OS & programs disk (or other drive letter they may be on possibly) with I/O to them. Dr. Russinovich is guilty of that, & not showing here to disprove my points... I can excuse he, but not Reimer! Reimer, who after impersonating me on his website & admitting to it here & there, + keeping up a libel campaign about myself as well for years now?

Jeremy Reimer, this is from a forums where I was banned: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=ee1c010129e3d398e578057f06805568&t=29519&highlight=APK Tell us all, who the users of that forums said was their favorite/BEST user there of ALL time? 2.) Jeremy Reimer: Have you any Graphical User Interface programs (GUI) that you have done that we can see/use that other websites are willing to host, that are PROVEN BETTER in head-to-head tests as mine have, such as this one: http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/389/foowhatevermakesgooglehappy.html OR, was your statement about that I quote above earlier on this page (where you said you had written GUI programs, lol, not) more of your usual b.s. & lies you got caught in here repeatedly?? (As well as your being caught in email harassing myself as you were by Shaw.ca your ISP/BSP, & then by your website’s HOSTING PROVIDER forcibly removing portions of your website that libelled me)?? 3.) Jeremy Reimer, when has ANY of your pitiful derivative drivel "pseudo articles" ever been one that’s taken ANY company to a finalist position @ Microsoft Tech Ed, as one of mine for EEC Systems/SuperSpeed.com (via its concepts which they used) in Ms Tech Ed’s HARDEST CATEGORY: SQL Server Performance Enhancement??? 4.) What are you doing here on this website Reimer, in the first place???? You admittedly impersonated me on your website, & this is cool to do?? "Anyway the "APK" registered here is just an affectionate clone of the original.

"I came back here to see if anything had come of the stalking lawsuit and criminal charge thing. Apparently not." - starkruzr August 01, 2007 Nope, & I never even faxed or had the police in my area fax the report I mention to the Vancouver P.D. to be blunt about it! (I have little "FREE" time (what’s that? I don’t even KNOW anymore, lol) between working 10-12 hour days the past 2-3 months now & taking care of regular/normal life duties). Plus, after speaking to Det. Constable Fenton of the Vancouver PD (who is/was unwilling to pursue this with Reimer, because of people who state they would show up for trials in THEIR jurisdiction, but never do, he is less than willing to pursue it (even THOUGH I WOULD have)). This is typical of police though, in these types of matters, where these things CROSS INTERNATIONAL BORDER LINES (this has been a real learning experience for me in any event, in terms of the legalities & redtape involved) AND actually? I don’t blame them! I have that officer’s superior’s name & phone #, & I could "press it" & make it go thru probably if I wished, but Reimer? He’s NOT worth it. Besides - I got what I wanted anyhow: Proof Reimer evades any questions put to he and that I could reach out across the wire & have portions of his site which libelled me, removed... AND, having YOU starkruzr, an arstechnica member of all folks, agree my points about memory optimizers are straight up enough! Also, to have both Reimer & Jay Little have their sites removed from their HOSTING PROVIDERS in their entirety, or in portions PLUS Reimer being caught by his ISP/BSP for email harassing me as well... it is HIS reputation online, not mine, he is destroying. ALL, just to prove a point that I can be a BIGGER PAIN IN THEIR ***** THAN THEY HAVE BEEN TO MYSELF (and I never started it, because apparently? THIS IS THE "SHORTEST ROUTE TO THEIR BRAINS" etc.). "I also feel compelled to note that Ars makes fairly big bank and shows no signs of going anywhere. In any large group online there are always old-school diehards who complain that it has "gone downhill" as it adapts to growth." - starkruzr August 01, 2007 Fine, you are probably right - but, don’t tell me: TELL REIMER THAT! "What you have now are more articles than back in the day, many of which are journal posts whose quality varies widely. The actual mainline articles, though, are generally of fairly high quality." - starkruzr August 01, 2007 Some are pretty good, others not. I only catch them occasionally via /., which I consider to be one of the more technically excellent sites around (because of some of their posting membership like John Carmack of IDSoftware, for example). All in all, all I can say is: Why won’t Jeremy Reimer answer these questions I put into my next post?]]>APKWed, 01 Aug 2007 12:28:52 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchorhttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchorWed, 01 Aug 2007 03:39:12 GMT

No answers from Jeremy Reimer, as per usual... Just his usual in evasions: Just like he evaded my list of 15 points that are in favor of memory optimizers (and, how it floored his arstechnica pals as well when each of them tried to attack it)! As to this: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=69de4ce63ba63ec39100e903eb0d616d&p=375355#post375355 Well, if anyone uses it?

"Sensor’s show that the object’s hull is made of SOLID neutronium: A single StarShip cannot combat it!" quote Mr. Spock, Star Trek original series, episode title: "The Doomsday Machine" As to Reimer?

Jeremy, since you avoided my questions above, & I answered ALL of yours and those of your friends? Answer these questions, Jeremy Reimer, 1 by 1: 1.) Jeremy Reimer, this is from a forums where I was banned: http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=ee1c010129e3d398e578057f06805568&t=29519&highlight=APK Tell us all, who the users of that forums said was their favorite/BEST user there of ALL time? 2.) Jeremy Reimer: Have you any Graphical User Interface programs (GUI) that you have done that we can see/use that other websites are willing to host, that are PROVEN BETTER in head-to-head tests as mine have, such as this one: http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/389/foowhatevermakesgooglehappy.html OR, was your statement about that I quote above earlier on this page (where you said you had written GUI programs, lol, not) more of your usual b.s. & lies you got caught in here repeatedly?? (As well as your being caught in email harassing myself as you were by Shaw.ca your ISP/BSP, & then by your website’s HOSTING PROVIDER forcibly removing portions of your website that libelled me)?? 3.) Jeremy Reimer, when has ANY of your pitiful derivative drivel "pseudo articles" ever been one that’s taken ANY company to a finalist position @ Microsoft Tech Ed, as one of mine for EEC Systems/SuperSpeed.com (via its concepts which they used) in Ms Tech Ed’s HARDEST CATEGORY: SQL Server Performance Enhancement??? 4.) What are you doing here on this website Reimer, in the first place???? You admittedly impersonated me on your website, & this is cool to do?? "Anyway the "APK" registered here is just an affectionate clone of the original. In fact I prefer him to the original." - Jeremy Reimer - March 25, 2005 You’re only destroying yourself here, and I know now WHY people are leaving "arsehole technica": Because nutjobs like you run that place!

DSmith 2112 (he is NOT I, Reimer... ask the moderators/administrators here on that note in fact to prove my point): A good possible explanation as to WHY Jeremy Reimer has not been banned here (other than his being a constant amusement along with his friends! Jeremy, you don’t get banned because everyone KNOWS you use alternate guises online! (The very thing YOU accused me of, & there is no stopping people that do that, unless a website filters against anonymous proxy usage (some do, some don’t))... Jeremy Reimer, e.g.: Weren’t you + your friends were all caught in it (JTD/StarKruzr/Jarrett DeAngelis) & on your forums Waarheid/Veritas/Hux admitted to it)? Let’s see their quotes of that: Starkruzr/jtd/Jarrett DeAngelis did here (as jtd, yet as starkruzr @ slashdot & here on this site, but as JTD here below): http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?s=889edb5f1ee4cd22eee33bc580b0e190&p=207262#post207262 And, hux (from Reimer’s forums) as Waarheid AND Veritas here earlier: http://www.wowdailynews.com/pegasus/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=93786&highlight=waarheid&sid=7c20ab802cbc3cec27b800 6f229f9522#93786 "Okay, I have to come clean now...

I was also "waarheid." by hux Posted: Thu Feb 10, 2005 9:19 pm They’re scumbags, just like Jeremy Reimer... deceitful slime. Reimer, what are you doing here anyhow? You have yet to post ONCE here on topic (though you are TOO TECHNICALLY WEAK to be here in the first place)! Why won’t you answer any of my questions above also Reimer??

Well, APK pretending to be Dsmith2112, the reason I have not been banned from this website is because the gold standard for banning is in fact APK. APK has been banned from more web sites than any other individual: see, arstechnica, 3dfiles, ntcompatible, etc, etc. Therefore, if APK has *not* been banned from a site, it is highly unlikely that *anyone* else has! lol!]]>JeremyThu, 19 Jul 2007 11:13:01 GMThttp://www.sqlmag.com/article/internals-and-architecture/the-memory-optimization-hoax#commentsAnchor
