according to this site: http://www.edbott.com/weblog/archives/000619.html
"Cleaning out the Prefetch folder will not improve performance. I have proved this with a stopwatch repeatedly on multiple test systems, and documented the results in Windows XP Inside Out Second Edition. In fact, emptying the Prefetch folder will actually reduce performance, because Windows has to re-create the trace files the next time you run the program."

Is it just theorically or practically we'll feel the changed different? Because one say that it's useful and another said that it isn't worth to try. So how it will be?
