You do not create a RAM disk to speedup browsing directly as such, what a RAM disk used for this purpose does is keep all the files from your recently accessed pages in there (cache), so when you visit them again, they load faster. This is usually on the hard drive, which is mechanical, thus slow. RAM is much faster, so in theory you should have your commonly viewed pages (www.lowendmac.com i hope!!!) load faster and also experience less hard-drive access. Before you get rid of it as Paris describes, try checking it is quite large (if the files in the cache start over-writing each other, they will have to be accessed from the web servers again, defeating the object), and that your IE/Netscape etc preferences directly point to the RAM disk, and not any other folder on your hard-drive.
