Happy new year to all!

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?


Yes. Use Bill James's Page File Monitor
