If your tabs are swapped out to SSD, your computer feels incredibly _slow_. SSD are fast, yeah, but multiple orders of magnitude slower than the slowest RAM mod

If your tabs are swapped out to SSD, your computer feels incredibly _slow_. SSD are fast, yeah, but multiple orders of magnitude slower than the slowest RAM module. You can run 4GB if you're fine with having most of your applications swapped out, but the experience will be excruciating. Physical memory is still as relevant as it was 30 years ago. No offense but if you can't see the problem, you probably have never used a computer with enough RAM to fit everything in memory + have enough spare for file caching.
