windows server which files are in cache

  • 772

Is there a way to see which files are cached in a windows server 2008R2?

I'd like to see/analyse which files are being used most to make choices how to optimize data on a server and for this it would help to see wich files are being cached most or use most cache memory.

    You can do this using Sysinternals RAMMap: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/sysinternals/ff700229.aspx

    The following link gives this example:

    If you want to check for performance regression tests if your cache is filled you could execute

    rammap C:\temp\ram.xml

    to get a nice xml file which shows which files are being in the cach now. The cached files are stored as xml nodes of the form

    File Key="3114984784" Path="C:\windows\system32\aelupsvc.dll"
