11 I noticed the same thing with mine. It used a LOT of ram. I have 4Gbs
12 and it was up to about 3Gbs at one point and using some swap as well.
13 I'm hoping to max out to 16Gbs as soon as I can. May upgrade to a 6
14 core CPU too.

16 I wonder how much faster it would be if the work directory is put on
17 tmpfs? With 16Gbs, that should work even for OOo.
