Good eye Andrew! Good eye! Windows 8 is hyper-visor aware in this regard. A big improvement over 7 in this area. I'm looking for something public on this and will post it to this comment area when I find it ok?

@Andrew Wood
Windows 8 detects SSD drives and doesn't do any prefetch for this drive, but keeps prefetching for normal HDDs. So no need to stop the superfetch service:

Can you comment on the volume cache changes? I'm not familiar with those tweaks.

Does it works for Windows 7 as well? If not, any equivalent script for Win7?

If you're ever interested in converting all or part of this to Powershell, let me know! This might be a fun project to do as a Powershell Module and I'd appreciate your guidance on it!

Maybe a very stupid question but how should this script be run on a w8 template?

Jeff, Can we use this on Windows 8.1 or any modifications needed for this script?

Jeff - so once an image is created. Run this script and then sysprep the image???

Nah some of the stuff will go away post sysprep /generalize, I'd make it a post deploy task TS step.

Jeff thank you for sharing this it is a great help. Just curious to know if these commands can be used for optimizing Windows 2012/R2 server build in particular Citrix and TS builds? At the present moment I don't have something like WDS/MDT for deploying the Image so I use a scripted install of Win7/8/2008/2012 using unattend.xml and using a post install batch file I apply the cutomizations. It would be great if someone could kindly convert this into a Powershell script.

Should be fine for RDS yeah. I am not that good at powershell, so yeah...
