Using RedyBoost

I have a Vista system with 2 gb of memory. I purchased a 8gb Verbatim flash
drive with Ready boost software.

I have not noticed any significant change of speed using this device. I have
it set to the recommended 3710gb. Under the customize tab for the device,
the default selection was set to Documents. I have selected "All".

Is there any type of test I can run with this device uninstalled to get a
speed measurement of my system and with the device installed with Ready
Boost to see the improvement?

Thanks,
Bob

Readyboost slowed my computer down. Wiith 2 gigs of memory I have ample so
ready boost doesn't help and loading it takes time.

You won`t notice any difference ; only if the original memory was
500mb (example) . [ No flames , please ]

Ready Boost was/is a marketing ploy
