Without these tweaking and methods, the score is about 20% slower.
Look this result with default setting (=without these tweaking and methods).

Hi NewBeetle impressive runs you have put in, I'm intrigued that your listed tweaks has included MAXMEM for the 32M runs. I have been doing some extensive testing of 32M runs (which can be found here) and have found adjusting MAXMEM to 400, 500 and 600 did not gain me anything in my runs. I wonder is there anything different in the way you are implementing this tweak? My method is as follows

Start -> run... "msconfig" The System Configuration Utility box will open up and you need to go to the "boot.ini" tab. Click "advanced options..." to bring up another box notice /MAXMEM is at the top with a number input beside it. Now here is where it gets vague. The majority say that for 32M calculations setting /MAXMEM to 600 works best, and for 1M calculations a values of 104. A bit of playing around with this value will be required but don't go crazy low or high as you may well bork your OS install.

is this the same as your method? One last thing, under "special methods" you list "physical memory adjustment" seeing how your already using MAXMEM to limit the size of the memory seen by windows what is this tweak doing?
