| 1150048 | 2010-11-03 05:47:00 | I managed to spend a day this week trialing a new machine for work (boring, I know). The not so boring bit was the workstation it was controlled by, dual quadcore with 24GB of ram running Solaris. Currently use a machine with half those specs with same software, and what a difference in speed. So I am now a firm believer in you can never have too much ram. |
