Yes, removing the lines will give the same results as using the minus sign for removing registry entries.

The handy part of using the minus sign is that you can remove entries that are already in the registry, for example those that already we're created in an another rgu or provxml or even program.

It's also an easy way to clean up your registry when it's used in one of the last files you've cooked in to your rom.

I think you can find an example in boot_ms.rgu in the MSXIPKernel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi lapy,

An file cooked in to your rom (almost) doesn't benefit from Extendir.

Only the files that are installed afterward.

A few examples of Files / Programs that fully benefit from Extendir:

Everything during customization

Registry

Surfing the web (Temporary internet files, etc)

SMS / MMS

Everything you (could) sync with active sync (contact, agenda, mail, etc)

Programs you install (manila, etc)

Files / Documents that you create or copied to your phone

Etc.

So if an cook would create a very light rom and would create cabs for manila and all the other packages,

He would give the end user the opportunity to have an rom that the end user wants (because the end user is given an choice what to install and what not)

AND everything that the end user chooses to install (for example manila) will benefit from the speed improvements!

Enjoy!

Well doing some testing with DatCacheSize under the Global FATFS the CacheSize must not be obsolete because if you change it to DataCacheSize the performace goes way way down. My benchmark for read 10kb x 100 files went from 6 to 132. I put it back to CacheSize and it was back fast again.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twopumpchump:
hi shadrak, can you give me an example of how to apply cachefilt.dll to the profile of SD card only? like bob said with this new manila document tab we have to include cachefilt.dll or it causes problems :rolleyes: in my boot.rgu i have only these entries for cachfilt.dll now...

[COLOR="Red"][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\Filters\CacheFilt]
"Dll"="CacheFilt.dll"
"Order"=dword:2[/COLOR]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\CacheFilt]
"FileCacheWriteBackPriority256"=dword:42

so i can delete the entry in red i understand that, but what about the other one? do i just leave it? or do i need to modify it? thanks for the help, im gonna give your latest test a try after work today :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
Here is the line I added and it works. I removed the one you have in red and added this one.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory\FATFS\Filters\CacheFilt]

"Dll"="CacheFilt.dll"

"Order"=dword:12

The bottom one I always delete but if there is any benefit maybe shadrac can let us know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] slapnutcity:
So it is better for performance to disable diskcache.dll by removing it from boot.rgu when cache is enabled in V2? And is it also better to remove it when using V1.06, with default cache of, for example, 8MB?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
I think he means with V2 with cache enabled. You would not wado it on V1.6
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi slapnutcity,

It's like bobsbbq said.

In Extendir V1.06 you still need the cache to have better write performance.

Enjoy

I found

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\PCMCIA]
"Folder"="Storage Card"
"Name"="PCMCIA/Compact Flash Device"

in default.hv file, but no sign of cache settings.

Now to Extendir V2 Preview/Beta 1.03:

Same problem with M2D, xTask, and Smartskey

Tried commenting out "CacheDll"="diskcache.dll" from [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS], but still no good.

I then changed Enabled to 0 and kept cachedll commented out, but still no better.

After getting them started, the phone works fine.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi twopumpchump, bobsbbq,

The bottom one is for the lazy writeback to disk.

If it's not in the registry it defaults to the lowest priority, so it only writes to disk when your device isn't doing anything else.

The above value of dword:42 seems a tiny bit high (read: extremly high)!

Normaly a program run with priority 251, time critical programs runs with priority 248. Everything lower than 248 (higher priority) is drivers and system/kernel.

When CacheFilt with a priority of 66 (dword:42) writes to your disk, your whole device freezes until its ready...

But, your going to apply it to your SD card (which you want it to be hot swappable...)

Hmmm... difficult choice...

I think it's best (for an SD card) to keep the registry entry but change the value to 254 (dword:FE) so it writes to disk before the other stuff at idle are doing there stuff and I would add "FileCacheWriteBackTimeout"=dword:A so it would start writing after 10 milliseconds (if the device isn't doing anything else) and not after default 5000 milliseconds.

You can find more setting (for example cachesize) here on MSDN.

Enjoy!

ShaDrac
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twopumpchump:
thanks for the explanation shadrak :) so if i use cachefilt.dll i will now include this in boot.rgu...hope i got it right now lol

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\CacheFilt]

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi bobsbbq,

I went through the FATFS source code and MS made a tiny mistake (bug).

If the "CacheSize" entry is missing in the registry (or dword:FFFFFFFF) , the cache is getting disabled.

So "CacheSize" need to be there in the registry (doesn't mather what it's value is)

But if "DataCacheSize" is missing in the registry it uses the value of "CacheSize".

And I was wrong on the default values, they are

"FatCacheSize"=dword:200
"DataCacheSize"=dword:400

But a "DataCacheSize"=dword:400 will never being set thanks to that tiny bug that "CacheSize" needs to be there in the registry.

Enjoy

ShaDrac
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi twopumpchump,

Yes that would work,

But I would do it like this since the settings are only related to the SD card.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory\FATFS\Filters\CacheFilt]
"Dll"="CacheFilt.dll"
"Order"=dword:12
"FileCacheWriteBackPriority256"=dword:FE
"FileCacheWriteBackTimeout"=dword:A

Enjoy!

ShaDrac
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
So should we put both? In the global FATFS

"CacheSize"=dword:0

"DataCacheSize"=dword:800
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BlackFriar:

Why would Sense2.5 need a filter applied only to the storagecard? Can you access files on the main partition?

just tried latest test, and for some reason i have no file explorer icon in my start menu again :confused: other than that, rom seems pretty stable and the benchmark is about 240 pts higher :) any ideas as to why i dont have a file explorer icon?

update...i just realized im also missing a couple more shortcuts from the start menu besides file explorer...weird
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sunsetdk:
My problems with PIE not wanting to download seems to be solved with v2 1.03. (They might allready have been gone with v2 1.02) Good work ShaDrac
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
Because the newer sense with Documents tab, and I think Ereader too write data to the storage card. And it seems to be related to the block size of the storage card and or the need for CacheFilt.dll. Since the rest of the system will perform acutally better without CacheFilt.dll We need to only apply it to the Storage card profile. Or as Shadrac suggested trying to format the storage card to 4kb cluster size. But for cooking ROM's for other users this is not a good option to tell all your users to reformat their storage card,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
Ok I have done some more testing and The V2 1.3 seems to really be working well. I see an increase in performance even without any cache in the 1.3 beta. Here is some shots of the Exact Same ROM one cooked with 1.6 with 4mb of cache, and one with V2 1.3 beta with 0 cache. Nothing changed in ROM just the Extendir.dll

Extendie V1.6 (4mb Cache)​

Extendir V2 Beta 1.3 (0 Cache)​
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lapy:
I understood, thanks for your reply. So any package needs to be converted in cab, and installed during customization or with the ui you did at the second boot.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bgcngm:
Yes, that's right, but don't forget that the .cab must be Extendir aware. This means that a .cab that normally installs some files to \Windows, should install those files to \Extendir\Install_Dir instead.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Using the \Windows Aliasing bonus feature by installing files in subfolders in \Extendir\WinDir is an optional feature.

But by doing so you can get an really nice extra boost.

Especially when you have a lot of files in the \Windows folder.

Enjoy! :)

ShaDrac
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
Yes but it is not mandatory. You can still get benefit by justinstalling the cab to windows. It is a optional and added benefit to install to the Extendir\Windir to remove more files from windows. This is better for larger things like Manila etc. But for small programs or customizations install to windows is just fine
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi epismax,

Thanks for your feedback! :)

Your boot.rgu looks ok, everything should work.

But i would use this little optimization:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt]
"NumDirsToExclude"=dword:[COLOR=red][B]e[/B][/COLOR]
"DirsToExclude"=multi_sz: "\\mxip_initdb.vol",
"\\mxip_system.vol",
"\\mxip_notify.vol",
"\\mxip_lang.vol",
"\\cemail.vol",
"\\pim.vol",
"\\Documents and Settings\\",
"\\Program Files\\",
"\\Windows\\",
"\\Application Data\\",
"\\ConnMgr\\",
"\\mxip_swmgmt.vol",
"\\Temp\\"[COLOR=red][B],[/B][/COLOR]
[COLOR=red][B] "\\Extendir\\"[/B][/COLOR]

Also I would remove CacheFilt, but if you really need it on your SD card, use the technique discussed two pages back to apply CacheFilt only to a profile.

I never used SPB Backup, but I'm downloading a trial version now. :)

Enjoy!

but I do not have encfilt.dll in my ROM. I do have mencfilt.dll in my ROM and in boot_ms.rgu as

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\Filters\ENCFilt]
"Dll"="mencfilt.dll"
"Order"=dword:5

but it does not show up in my phone's registry. Only

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\ENCFilt]
"PolicyDLL"="DeviceEncryptionPolicy.dll"
"EncryptByDefault"=dword:00000000

values created by os folder rgu and MSXIPKernel rgu files show up. I suspect the [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\ENCFilt] in boot.rgu deletes the values created by boot_ms.rgu, but the other values get created. Looks like I have some trial and error cleaning up to do.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
You will have to create the new enrty for the Storage card.

but the ROM got stuck in customization. Made me think it was having the sdcard filtered. I went back and cooked a ROM without the sdcard filter.

[-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory\FATFS\Filters\ENCFilt]

and it starts, but still not getting everything into start up folder.

Based on it used to call for encfilt.dll and that was not in my ROM, I would say I am not using any filter on my SDcard.

@RoryB:

I wrote a couple apps to process/organize registry files here

RGUber will use rgucomp to convert a single rgu to hv, then back to rgu, alphabetize the keys and alphabetize the values for each key. Because it is converted to hv, all comments are lost and 'delete' keys are resolved. RGUOrder will alphabetize the keys and keep comments, but not alphabetize the values and does not need rgucomp.

Either of these may help you determine what is going on without having to cook/flash the rom.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RoryB:
Thank you.

BTW ShaDrac I even tried changing Extendir order to 999 and I still have the problem of various shortcuts do not unzip to the start up folder and M2D does not start up without me going into settings and checking touchflo. Here is my storage section of my registry.

Shadrac hi,

I wanted to ask if u will be working on to make ths extendir working on devices like htc touch viva and alll if so plz let me know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sunsetdk:
As far as I know this is a pretty much generic DLL that will work on most devices (if not all), how ever I'm only a novice
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobsbbq:
RoryB are all your problems due to things that are added through Extendir or custom cabs and customizations applied after flash through Extendir such as manila etc? If so I think it is important for shadrac to debug 1 area at a time in order to not overwhelm him with endless possibilities of problems. If you build a normal ROM with Manila and all customization in the ROM does it work ok?

For debuging purposes I have been using manila built in the ROM and then later I will move to the other manila and customization from the Storage card.

It is easier to find a needle in 1 hay stack, than in ten hay stacks, if you know what I mean.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RoryB:
@bobsbbq

Actually, I am working on only one problem. With V2b1.03 I get following errors that did not occur in v1.06. I have not changed anything from v1.06 to v2.

Manila does not start automatically, I have to go into today settings and check the box for touchflo.

Smartskey.lnk and xTask.lnk do not get extracted from their zip files into startup folder, but quickmenu's link does.

The other posts I made about storage card was sharing what I found on my phone for others that were looking at sdcard options.

My recent attempt to fix my problem was trying order=999, which did not work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twopumpchump:
ive tried everything i know including order of extendir, and still i have .lnk files that arent making it to the places they are supposed to. other than that, im loving the new version :) also i released a beta rom and had one user report that their mscr they had made to install .lnk to start menu didnt work for them. i never run cabs at customization untill this release, i had to make one for the 2 missing shortcuts to get them to work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sunsetdk:
I'm trying to understand and optimize my boot.rgu. I have read alot about the fsreplxfilt but can't work out what it does and doesn't do. Seems that removing items from the list can make the rom faster, then why is extendir added to the above example? I can see that in the above the full "document and settings", "program files" and "windows" folder is added; my exclustion list is alot more specific.

Should I add the extendir to mine too (Kaiser)?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] RoryB:
What is strange is I have a group of zip files in my extended rom that my customization script (cooked in) does a foreach zipfile unzip. The one for quickmenu gets into the startup folder and the other two do not. BUT, the exact same script and extended rom works in version 1.06 Extendir. MortScript is in the windows folder in both versions.

I have tried order=0, order=999,and now order=1 and none make a difference. I too can create a work around if needed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bgcngm:
ShaDrac, Extendir V2 beta 1.03 is working flawlessly here. Do you have any ETA for the version with cache? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sunsetdk:
I know that this is a bit offtopic

But under the section

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt]

I have added the following key

"ReplStoreCacheSize "=dword:0800

I gave a nice speed boot I think, how ever the fileIndex with SPB benchmark went down, but it seems MUCH more responsive.

My device is a Kaiser, no idea if others will have benefit from this.

I does consume som RAM, not sure how much though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Hi sunsetdk,

Since Fat32 doesn't provide any native support for file replication, it's simulated (only for our root storage) with help of the fsreplxfilt.dll.

AFAIK only notes uses this kind of replication, everything else replicates with help of active sync.

One of the things that the fsreplxfilt.dll does, is to track when the last change to a file occurred (of all the files in our root storage) so when a connection with an PC is made it can faster analize which files to replicate from/to the PC.

This information is stored in a hidden database on our phones.

When a request to our root storage (storage memory) is made the fsreplxfilt.dll first check its hidden database before sending the request through to our root storage. And since that hidden database is located at our root storage there is a lot of extra traffic!

The "ReplStoreCacheSize"=dword:0800 is just a cache so fsreplxfilt.dll doesn't have to check at the hidden database located at our root storage.

That's why your device is a bit more responsive.

BUT since only notes uses this and notes are replicated to the "My Documents" folder it's best to exclude everything except the "My Documents" folder.

So it's best to completly replace your setting with this one:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt]
"NumDirsToExclude"=dword:[COLOR=black]e[/COLOR]
"DirsToExclude"=multi_sz: "\\mxip_initdb.vol",
"\\mxip_system.vol",
"\\mxip_notify.vol",
"\\mxip_lang.vol",
"\\cemail.vol",
"\\pim.vol",
"\\Documents and Settings\\",
"\\Program Files\\",
"\\Windows\\",
"\\Application Data\\",
"\\ConnMgr\\",
"\\mxip_swmgmt.vol",
"\\Temp\\[COLOR=black]",[/COLOR]
[COLOR=black] "\\Extendir\\"[/COLOR]

For more info you could check here on MSDN.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ShaDrac:
Extendir V2 Preview/Beta 1.04

It looks this is going to be the last Preview/Beta without cache. :cool:

If you do find any bugs, PLEASE let me know!

btw. The order (in boot.rgu) can be set to 0!

For this preview/beta I hardcoded that files/folders in "\My Documents" or it subfolders don't use the Extendir optimizations.

This will make notes sync while the order (in boot.rgu) is set to 0. :)

In the final release this is configurable with help of a configuration program/file.

Enjoy! :)

fyi:
