    It's been a while since last tweaks were posted here.
    Now I want to tell about one tweak that did help. It doesn't compare to copy-waza in terms of time gain but it gave me around ~0.1" for 1 MB SuperPI runs. Because of the nature of this tweak I think it is more helpful to 1 MB / 2MB runs then for 32 MB runs.
    I call this tweak: pseudo-minimize because it resembles to minimize but it's not the same. It goes like this:

    When all other tweaks are done (including realtime priority and copy-waza) and you are ready to launch SuperPI 1MB, then drag the bottom-right corner of the SuperPI window towards the upper-left corner untill the only thing left visible remains the small title bar of the window.

    Then use the keyboard to launch SuperPI with the combination ALT+C then select the desired run (1MB, 2MB etc) with either the keyboard or mouse, then hit Enter (or click OK).

    Finally, when the "PI calculation done!" message appears you should put the mouse pointer over the TaskBar, click the right button and select "Tile Windows Vertically" to see the whole SuperPI window and do the screeny fest

    This tweak, in conjunction with copy-waza is the best I've tried so far.
    In the picture below you can see the best result and WR afaik, with AMD Opteron at 2704 Mhz 338x8, obtained with this tweak.
