Here's , I hope, a simple question for the new year.
I have a pc with an XP PC with 1GB of memory and occasionally run processor
hungry video editing software.
Is there any easy way to tell if increasing the physical memory would
improve the performance? I.e looking at how much paged memory is used while
processing a large file?
