Well, VM uses tons of RAM - you should basically double your RAM requirements over a standard environment. But 3.6 GB isn't exactly starving it, so I'd check something else first, since you specifically mentioned inserts - indexes. How many indexes and rows are in the table you're having probems with? Have you eliminated non-ARS reasons for the performance? Rick _____
