Originally posted by adpo i use lightroom 3 on a netbook using a 1.3ghz dual core cpu and 4 gigs of ram, runs great for me, although i do get the occasional hiccups here and there.
if ram is really an issue, check out SmartRam by iobit, it comes packaged with their advanced system care thing. best part is, its free.
I've been assuming that LR would be similar to Bridge in this respect, but perhaps not. I'll give it a shot.
I already use Cleanmem, with marginal, temporary improvements. Any "memory-enhancing" program would have to resort to increased paging activity, and since THAT is the reason for the slowdown in the first place, it's not likely to show much benefit.
Thanks for the suggestions.
