Adding memory beyond 4GB on Windows 32-bit is a total waste. It is not even 
recognized by the operating system!

Maybe the improvement came on the basis of adding faster RAM that was then used 
for the bottom 4GB or perhaps your CPU / motherboard combination accesses 
memory faster when more fully populated (YMMV)! But again, in terms of being 
used, a total waste!

Now if you are on Windows 64-bit, even though FrameMaker is a 32-bit 
application, performance may significantly improve with additional memory 
simply because FrameMaker is not competing for real memory as opposed to 
virtual memory; less paging equals much higher performance.

I'm surprised upgrading the RAM made any difference. I thought 32-bit Windows 
only recognizes 4 GB maximum (actually, I think it's something like 3.2 GB).

FM 11.0 / Win 7, 32-bit / Intel i3 cpu

Similar problem in book with 36 chapters.  Significant improvement in response 
time attained by upgrading RAM from 4GB to 8GB.  Though there is still room for 
improvement.
