ImDisk can allocate RAM dynamically, so as much or as little as needed. I have it set to 20GB max, but it ussually uses only about 1GB. In your case I would try 4GB max for starters.
Attachments
"The amount of RAM you should allocate for a RAMDisk depends on several factors, including your overall RAM usage and the size of the files you plan to store on the RAMDisk. As a general rule, it's recommended to allocate no more than 25% to 30% of your total RAM to a RAMDisk. For a laptop with 16GB RAM, you can allocate around 4GB-5GB for the RAMDisk. However, keep in mind that allocating too much RAM to a RAMDisk can affect your system's performance, so it's important to experiment with different amounts to find what works best for you."

I have tried several paid/trial versions and they are indeed noticeably faster (Softperfect). I was under impression that RAM speed is the limitation, but obviously the driver/software matters too.
I have not tried OSFMount though, I used AMD ramdisk before, but it has not been updated for years, so I moved on, but since everything is working, I do not tempt the fate but testing too much.

That is it. I am done with Edge password manager. It recently removed some useful features, like categories and also the ability to edit links, but I was like OK, it is MS, it was expected, I blame it on outsourcing. But I was just testing the policy ClearBrowsingDataOnExit, because CookieAutodelete is dead, and it removed all passwords. No problem, it happened before, passwords will sync back, but they did not and on top of it, it removed them from all devices, including MS Authenticator. WTF?! What saved me was having a backup of "Login Data" file. So I moved back to Bitwarden and as if that was not bad enough, I sort of "forgot" the new password, so once I spent an hour adding 111 passwords, I had to do it all over again. What a lovely spent weekend. Thank you MS.

Good to know that DOT is also supported. Curious why are you choosing DOT over DoH? Is it because of speed? Apparently, in theory DoT is slightly faster than DoH, DoQ is faster than both as QUIC is UDP.I have finally managed to enable DoT on 24H2, boy was that "easy" and I struggled for months.

BTW, if Edge's (and other chromium browsers) DNS setting is not changed then it doesn't work with Windows's DoH. I see the same in 24H2. Does it work with DoT?
- May 13, 2017
- 2,773
I consider it safer based on what I have read. People choose DoH, because it is supposedly hidden from ISP as if ISP does not know IPs of DNS, so it does not really matter in that case.
DoH and DoT in chromium browsers work just fine, as long as the insecure DNS is blocked in the firewall, causing 5 sec lag every 5 min, but that is a small price to pay for security and privacy.

I see. It's just that Chromium browsers are somehow incompatible with Windows's internal DoH. They work by default just fine when YogaDNS or AdGuard Home is run locally.

I have decided to remove WFC, it was giving me too much headache. Windows Firewall with outbound allowed still honors block rules, so I am just going to block bad ports by default like:
