Heh. If I could expand the RAM in my 2008 iMac to 8 or 16 Gig RAM I would. I regularly fill 4 Gig with just Lightroom and Photoshop on a single K20D RAW image. You do some adjustments in Lr, then edit in Ps and wham! the swapping starts. Granted I do more retouching than most here.
8GB is pretty tight for me, but then i'm already using a lot of VM for browser tabs and other tools that embed browsers, _then_ i launch Aperture and seem to need another 2-4GB of VM (but then, i used to edit 80-100MB images on a Quadra 900 ...)
you may be able to put 6GB in that iMac: <http://www.everymac.com/systems/by_capability/actual-maximum-ram-capacity-of-macs.html> -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
