Free PC Speed Test

Here behold the ultraphantastique Free PC Speed Test it disables a lot of "unnecessary" operating system features, such as the ridiculous IPv6 ...

I recommend not using it, unless you want to reinstall your operating system (I mean Windows, optimizing Linux is more complicated) when you discover that this or that disabled feature is necessary for the operating system to work in the future.

The normal way to optimize Windows 7 safely is to disable unnecessary GUI features by opening Computer Properties, entering Advanced system settings and clicking on Performance to regulate in detail the visual effects. Some of those effects are neurophysiologically advantageous, such as windows' shadows and font anti-aliasing, but most of it is visual blows-and-whistles of no use.
