I think I'll leave it alone. The new ram may make some things faster tho.
It'll be interesting to hear whether it makes any difference. I'm sure it
will if you're currently swapping to disk a lot (are you?), but otherwise
only during en emerge of vast proportions. Or so it seems to me.
I've always been satisfied with my 4GB, which has always been plenty to hold
the applications I run and their data. Except while emerging, say, Open
Office, but I'm not going to spend even more money than I have already just to
accommodate that!
Well, turned out my ram is coming from NJ instead of Memphis. May take
a extra day or so. It did ship this morning tho. I plan to max out at
16Gbs and put portage on tmpfs. That should be big enough even to
compile OOo then.
Checked UPS.com and it looks like Friday. Not to bad.
