PreCache Tool for Microsoft CRM

I just found a really cool utility to speed up Microsoft CRM. Even though Microsoft CRM is using caching techniques to ensure a perfect user experience and a rapid-responding application I have noticed that it takes a while specially on VPC’s to get it going the first time, it’s slower then in production environments. So wouldn’t it be nice to have a small program which would speed things up when you try to access Microsoft CRM the first time?

The tool is written by Joris Kalz, it is called CachingTool and it is based on .NET Framework 2.0 so you have to install it first: Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package (x86) After installation you will see a tray icon where you can edit some settings. You can enter your Microsoft CRM Webserver. To edit the list URLs which will be cached, edit the config-file

This tool could be used in a production environment to speed up the application e.g. after launch time…
