The 32-bit versions of Vista can only address 3 GB of memory, so more
than that amount doesn't improve performance unless you're running
the 64-bit (Ultimate) version of Vista.

Hi all,
FM8 seems to be sluggish on my PC. I mean trivial cursor tasks like jumping
the cursor from one word to another or selecting text. My PC is a 2.8 GHz
Pentium IV (full architecture) and it is really fast and great for
everything else.
FM7.2 is much more snappy on my PC.
