Well, I have photoshop running, and I mess with apo, and something previewed at 50 or less quality, and it takes like.... 5 minutes to generate the preview, whereas with PS closed, it normally takes less than a min... 1.25 GB of RAM ftl.

Ah ok, I definitely see the point now :D me, I work on a prehistoric laptop with 256 mb RAM so I have to forget about multitasking entirely - once Apo's up, nothing else can be :D

Not really... when using Apo that is my only focus so I don't really need anything else running. The tough part is trying to render at high oversample values :(

Hehe. I can't wait to experiment with Apo again... I have some fractals that I need to render but with PS open... I swear, it'd take like, 2 days....

Rendering with PS open? Is that even possible?

...

Ah, yep. It is.

:D

Well next month I should switch to MacBook Pro, can't wait to try that feeling too :)

Awesome. The people I volunteer for were thinking of getting all the staff members nicer PC's... Or I'll just buy some RAM. :D Or you RAM. ;)
