Optimal Prefetch, Vista

Windows will correct this issue when there is upcoming optimizes in Vista as in vista will run after some Idle period this tool rundll32.exe which collect and optimizes entire harddrive accordingly to layout.ini & prefecth (Order: boot files->Application Files-> rest of HDD by date modified).
After that tasks has runned 5 times (manual task launching commandline: rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks ) Vista also does another sort of optimize to system. It compresses almost all the system data you haven’t needed so far in vista and eventually system takes less space in your root harddrive.
