How much memory is "useful"
My system is a Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD3H-BK board with 2 8GB DDR3 G SKILL
memory strips (16 GB total) and an Intel i5-4690 processor, set up with two 24" monitors. I do a lot of genealogy work, and often have 8 database programs open at the same time, constantly switching between them or copying information from one or more to my genealogy program. Would more memory improve performance, or would having the database programs running on a SSD be more effective? How could I tell if disk access or limited memory was slowing down things? |
