Tired of how slow my G4 was, I just bought a MacBook and installed 2GB RAM.

I wasn't expecting this to make all that much difference with REALbasic performance, but in fact, it's significantly faster. This appears to be mostly because my old computer had 768MB RAM, and would wind up swapping quite a bit. With REALbasic, NetNewsWire Lite, Mail, and Firefox running, I'm using almost 1.2GB RAM, so it's no wonder.

I'm using a G5 PPC  iMac 20"- 2MHz - 1GB Ram - OSX 10.4.7.

I have open:

Mail, Safari, NetNewsWire Lite 2.1, REALbasic 2006r3, REALbasic 5.5.5 OSX, Classic 9.2, REALbasic5.5.5 Classic.

My computer is using 295 MB of Ram and has 728 MB free memory.

If you are using 1.2 GB of Ram with less running, something is pretty weird.

PS. My CPU is running at idle at 24% with all of these open. With Classic off, and only Mail, Safari and Rb 2006 it usually runs at 1 to 5% at idle.

  That would imply you could turn Classic on...
Don't you mean, "Rosetta off..." AFAIK, classic isn't even available if running OS X/Intel. And how would you turn Rosetta 'off', anyway?
