Hi floyd.

I run MME and it's all going well for me. At one point during the early beta testing, I had some problems with excessive generation times that no one else experienced. My \bb folder is on a solid state hard drive. What I ended up doing was to run a Windows 11 routine called "Retrim". It's accessed through a disk's "Properties" and then the "Tools" tab. I'm not absolutely certain, but this seemed to fix the problem for me.

A couple of days after that happened, I had a power outage while I was using BIAB. When the power came back on and I restarted BIAB, the program was working very lethargically. So again, I ran the retrim option, and it definitely fixed whatever the problem was. Because I have an SSD, though, I was very reluctant to over use this program. Below are a couple of articles about retrim and why it is good for SSDs. So the moral of my story is... if you have \bb on an SSD, consider running retrim. It might fix your problem.
