Re: Disk cache for download
FlashFXP uses a 256KB buffer for downloads, We've tested numerous different sizes and have concluded that 256KB provides the best performance value. Using a buffer size of 4MB will not provide optimal speeds on a gigabit network. In fact the performance difference between 256KB and 4MB is about a 5MB/sec drop in transfer speed.
If we were to allow the user to change the buffer size and it were changed from 256KB to some other value the user would not have the best experience possible.
I understand that your concern is about disk activity and not performance.
I think the only viable solution at this point would be to add an advanced option that is set via the ini file, If this is something that would interest you let me know.
It would be something like this, where <value> is the disk buffer in KB, 4096 would give you a 4MB buffer.
DiskBuffer=<value>
