     @wertimer I also had an article about boosting responsiveness of windows 11 but MS fucking removed it.
     Basically though turn off memory integrity (if you want to take that security risk) and virtual machine platform (no risk but you can't use VMs or WSL)

     @RustyCrab you have any recommendations for debloating win10?

     @wertimer I don't think this is a proper "debloater" in that it won't uninstall things but I've been using this for years to great effect. https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10
     
     I like it because there's no risk of damaging your system (it's basically just changing registry values) and it turns off basically everything that's really bothersome

     @Inginsub @wertimer I used to have an old laptop with a spinny disk for extra storage. Nothing even ran on it. The disk was defacto inaccessible until I turned off superfetch. It would just sit there all day doing reads and writes that did literally nothing and would take minutes to copy even tiny files from it because superfetch was using all available bandwidth to vacuum up everything I wasn't accessing

     @RustyCrab @Inginsub @wertimer oh god yeah i remember superfetch.
     When I got a modern laptop back in 2020 (cheapo ryzen), it came with an SMR HDD. It was god awful on windows. I'd have to wait like 10 or so minutes *after bootup* to be able to use the computer properly. Linux with BTRFS on it run at what essentially felt 10x the speed of windows.

     @RustyCrab @wertimer windows is terrible about data layout, and even on nvmes small file reads can drop to 100 mb/s or below, which is the same as hdd and not much better than usb 2.0. superfetch is bad on any hardware

     @mischievoustomato @Inginsub @wertimer superfetch still ships with windows they just renamed it to sysmain.
     
     I guess to make it sound scary and confusing to disable because they don't want you to have a good time

     @RustyCrab @mischievoustomato @wertimer sysmain managed by net.exe of all things, when you tell someone that running 'net.exe stop superfetch' will improve performance dramatically they think it's a joke like 'delete win32' or 'run format c: /fs:ntfs'

     @RustyCrab @Inginsub @wertimer noted. Hopefully I will never have to have windows installed baremetal ever again.
