Try finding discussion of whether (pagefile.sys) is manipulated by
SSD wear leveling, and then get back to me about being technically
oriented. Until then, consider yourself a troll...

Firmware shmirmware. Back when I bought an IBM PC, using some
instruction from a Peter Norton book and the C programming
language, I wrote directly to video memory. The operating system
deals directly with hardware drivers. Just because wear leveling
is done by firmware, doesn't mean it does it all.

If this were a waste of time, it wouldn't generate so much
interest. I seriously doubt this thing really knows what it's
talking about...

Actually that's exactly what it means. Instead of just guessing, why
not look up "static wear leveling" and read about it? Don't waste
your time deleting and moving files in hopes that you will by accident
do something better than your SSD is designed to do on purpose and by
default.

Look at it this way: let's say you have an almost-full SSD with a PE
cycle limit of 10,000 (to pick a number), how many times do you think
you have to "move" your page file to effectively handle wear leveling
on your own over, say, three years?

I did with this troll said, I searched for

"static wear leveling" "pagefile.sys"

And received a total of four results, none of them useful.

I wonder why so much interest from the UK.

You don't get it. pagefile.sys is just more data on your drive. Why
would you expect your SSD to treat it differently than all of the
other data it automatically manages?

I don't think that any SSD handle page files or swap files or
hibernation files in any special way, but it is possible that an
operating system could use a TRIM operation to say that the current
contents of the file didn't matter before each time such a file
was opened for its normal use. [I'm not saying that this would
improve performance, but the idea might be used as a basis for
improved performance and it does ensure that normal access to the
SSD, even by privileged programs, couldn't see old data that was
in the various files.]

Don't post something as if you knew, when in fact

Any usefulness this thing's speculation might have had is pass�,
replaced with opinions from people who are much smarter and more
experienced.

My speculation was no better than those who had never considered
the possibility that (pagefile.sys) might be treated differently
by SSD wear leveling.

I reposted under a different subject because the prior thread was
filled almost entirely with idiots and/or trolls that completely
missed the point. Talking about half-literate nym-shifting trolls
like this thing, that should read my original post and notice the
question mark in the first paragraph...

It wasn't worth reading.

That's just na�ve. Nobody with any experience using a computer on
the Internet would suggest that. Your client determines your font.
Something like that might have to do with encoding, but it has
nothing to do with me.

If you need help with posting, or help with understanding other
people's posts, ask in an appropriate group.

In fact, I haven't said anything in this thread
to even suggest that my beliefs are unchangeable.
All of the posturing and chest thumping has come
