I'm a bit lost here, but perhaps my own findings can be of help.

  1. I never ever put temp files on my SSD. SSD's are great for write once read many files, like Program Files and (not too huge) Content Libaries.

  2. with 24Gb ram inside I created a dynamic / 4Gb RAM disk (B:) for temps. You can't beat ram drives fo speed, and they (usually) start clean at bootup. In Windows I redirected my TMP and TEMP system variables to my B: drive.

  3. Poser temp file folder is set in General Preferences, Misc tab.

  4. Poser render results are not cached in temp, but managed separately. The amount of seved results is set in General Prefs, Render tab.

For your convenience: I put a tutorial on my website http://www.book.artbeeweb.nl/?p=162 describing how to handle Poser as a program, addressing CPU, RAM and similar issues. You're welcome.

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
