What difference will an extra 2gb memorymake?
Hi Experts. I am running XP with 1Gb ram. I am using macros with Adobe Photoshop some of which take around an hour to complete. Many involve photoshop artistic filters. If I put in another 2GB of RAM in the machine, will it improve things, or would there be enough overhead anyway in the 1GB Ram? The files I am working on are around 40Mb in size. Thanks for your advice...

hi nasturtiumman... did you know that you can split points?
Before you accept a comment, there is a SPLIT POINTS link just above the comment box. If you are considering the "good answers" it may be appropriate to re-proportion the wealth :-) You can do this by posting a 0pt question in the following link:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/Community_Support/
Then post in the title "Please reopen to split points", and in the body of the question put
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/21822159/What-difference-will-an-extra-2gb-memorymake.html#16507095
In 24 hours a moderator will reopen the question, and then you can award accordingly. I'm sure the rest of the experts will agree and be appreciative as they did provide good assists.
Thank you in advance.

Yeah, I am aware that you can split points, but what is the done thing in this situation. If I split points everyone will end up with a trivial amount of points. Anyway, I am most happy to do so .... N

Yes, please do that and I will award points in a more reasonable way ...N
