The Inquirer claims that the promised speed increase in Longhorn can be enabled in Windows XP as well. To do this, open your Registry (Start>Run>Regedit) and go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\
Session Manager\Memory Management\Prefetcher

Create a new DWORD underneath that key called EnableSuperfetch and give it a value of 1. I don't notice any performance increase, but I thought I'd pass this on to you - it can't hurt to try it.

Hmm, I'm interested in enabling this thing but I need to know more about what it actually does...
