How much can be stripped ? (My winsxs folder on my main rig is almost 7gb).
Also I would like to add that regarding the cpu usage; after I updated to the latest catalyst xbmc uses 2 cores at 78% load with a better framerate compared to the earlier results where I expierenced a full core+50%=77% avarage. Still XBMC uses double the cpu of vlc ^^.
I have XBMC+sabnzb+sickbeard+couchpotato+etc on my second disk... when I reinstall my windows i don't need to install them again - just one dll for xbmc + I need to save some setting for sabnzd form c: -
size will depend on your hibernation preferences and amount of ram (paging file size) to but 30 gigs should do just nicely
