Well, with XFCE it should be enough, though having a lot of free RAM |
| 15 |
means more capacity for the filesystem cache to speed up reads. But the |

Hm... you could compare CPU performance... simple examples are the 7zip |
| 19 |

That looks normal, my Pro laptop from 6 years ago reaches around 75 MB/s, |
| 28 |
as does my netbook (Atom N450). |
