I'll assume all this doesn't breach the EULA (you dont change eve, you change the hardware under it), but maybe a GM could confirm this is legal?
I'll have a go at this myself later on when I have some time to spare. I "only" have 1GB of RAM tho...
Isn't it great being a skill collector?

I tried this now, and did indeed notice quite an improvement.
I must admit I also cleared my cache first..
There is however a however :)
I see "access denied" errors when running the batch file, and i when I quit eve, and unpaused the batchfile, both my cache folders were empty 
Good thing I didn't back up my cache folder, otherwise i'd still have my settings...
I'll try to edit the batchfile some more...
I'll be back!

Im trying with 2 clients, each in its own folder on the D: drive, and each got its own folder on S: linked to the cache folder in the Eve folder, and each has its own batchfile.
Both clients start up fine, and work pretty fast, however:
if I try to start the second client when the first is alredy running, it gets stuck at "aqcquiring bulk data"
this happens to both clients, no matter in which order i start: first to start runs fine, second gets stuck
I use this batchfile:
 Quote:
@echo off
REM edit line below with your full eve path(no trailing \)
set EVEPATH=D:\Games\EVE
set BCKCACHEDIR=bckcache
REM edit line below with your full ramdisk cache folder path (no trailing \)
set RAMPATH=S:\cache1
@echo copying files, Please wait
xcopy /C /I /D /K /R /E /H "%EVEPATH%\%BCKCACHEDIR%" %RAMPATH%
@echo files copied
@echo removing machonet
rmdir /s /q %RAMPATH%\machonet
@echo machonet removed
"%EVEPATH%\eve.exe"
cls
@echo (only press when you shutdown eve)
pause
rmdir /s /q "%EVEPATH%\%BCKCACHEDIR%"
xcopy /C /I /D /K /R /E /H %RAMPATH% "%EVEPATH%\%BCKCACHEDIR%\"
rmdir /s /q %RAMPATH%
mkdir %RAMPATH%
exit
The other batchfile is the same except for:
Quote:
@echo off
REM edit line below with your full eve path(no trailing \)
set EVEPATH=D:\Games\EVE-2
set BCKCACHEDIR=bckcache
REM edit line below with your full ramdisk cache folder path (no trailing \)
set RAMPATH=S:\cache2
