After installing SSD drives in my VSL computer, I was not only astonished to see how fast large ensembles load, but was also surprised to see that the total amount of memory being used is far less than with the traditional hard drives. I understand how SSDs load much faster, but I don't understand why the memory usage should be so much reduced, allowing me to add even more instruments if need be.
Can anybody tell me why this is so?
Thanks,
Jerry
