I realize that you're talking about physical ram, but what about RamDoubler? I've got it installed in my 5300 and the system profiler tells me that I have 56meg installed with 112meg available. Would that help his memory problem?

I'll try it, but my experience years ago with a 630CD Performa come to mind as a general slowdown. Isn't it

Virtual Memory on a PPC machine is a lot better than a 68K machine. More so if you are running OS 8.0 and later.
And yes, RAM Doubler is a form of Virtual memory. The other thing with using Virtual memory is it makes the loading of libraries more efficient so you don't need to use as much RAM.
