However I agree for Blitz 128MB is way too much Why way too much ? Please have a look at the opinion of G. Pascutto (message 431352 today) and Dan Corbit (message 431354) : they completely disagree with you. Steve Lopez' argument according which too much RAM is bad because of the engine losing time searching values in empty allocated RAM reserved for the hashtables always appeared somewhat strange to me considering present speed of memory access... At the opposite, too few allocated ram causing swapping is certainly a potential cause of severe slowing down. Marc
