[gelöst] Laufwerk komprimieren - "Für und Wider" oder nur "Für"

leider lässt danach die Systemleistung Extrem nach, wenn danach das starten eines Programms oder Videos ewig lange dauert.

I made a test on my i7 SATA II drive.
Using Apptimer to measure application launch time I NTFS compressed Mozilla Firefox folder and it ran slightly faster when compressed (4,7s vs 5.0).

I defragmented the folder and rebooted the pc before any iteration of the test.

On a slower machine (w7, Phenom 1), MS Office 2010 x64 went unfortunately from 2,56s to 3,41s loading time.
I think NTFS compression Cons overweight the Pros, that is, you incur in some cpu penalty hits and you suffer from terrible fragmentation when writing/modifying. And don't you ever do this on an SSD drive. You will wear out the drive and shorten its lifespam.

Hello. I have made a small benchmark regarding loading times and the different options.
I used MS Office 2010 Word x64

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE - Uncompressed: 5.1257 seconds loading time
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE - LZX: 4.0160 seconds loading time
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE - Xpress4K: 2.9703 seconds loading time
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE - Xpress8K: 2.6571 seconds loading time
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14\WINWORD.EXE - Xpress16k: 2.5630 seconds loading time

It seems my i7 is pretty happy decompressing xpress16k.
