I use ISLC when gaming on a 16gb W11 pc.
SETTINGS: When list size is 0mb and free memory is lower than 16gb (max)
Meaning, ISLC zaps any chance of any RAM being utilized for standby.
I've got plenty of processor headroom, so I don't mind it polling every 500ms.
The performance impact when gaming has been positive.
What's the downside? Is there some other method to inform W11, once, "stop standby forever" ?
Thanks!
I'm keeping my Standby List to Zero with ISLC. Is that bad?

Theoretically, you are denying Windows the ability to build a memory cache. I suppose it's not a great idea, but the most important thing is how well your computers and games are running. If you believe it is faster and you are satisfied, then you can keep it. However, I suspect that some games may take longer to reload a specific scene.Missionary wrote: ↑Mon Jan 15, 2024 11:23 am I use ISLC when gaming on a 16gb W11 pc.
