Neither did I which is why, evidently wrongly, chose to use the system
resource meter as my indicator. I do know that I get fewer out of memory
messages when using Photoshop, when scanning, and the like than I did before
adding the memory above 512MB. The only place where I sometimes run out of
space is when printing if the windows\temp folder gets too clogged up with
orphaned files - which is something that really has nothing to do with the
amount of physical RAM installed.

Dunno, especially as I think PS does some of its own memory management
instead of the OS. But I simply don't know enough to say anything useful.
