So the increase in RAM would be a bigger factor that the increase to 2 virtual CPU's and the lower overhead of XEN?

Definitely. RAM is always the first thing you should look at when a machine needs to be faster because when a machine gets "bogged down" you are almost always waiting on the machine to swap.



That's what I was thinking so the notebook models I am looking at are able to go to 4GB of RAM... I am also going to take a stab at no swap and see if that can eliminate that whole area of concern. That is also why I am wondering about the impact of CPU(s) and RAM increases to overall system performance (I do realize I'm asking for a stab at this question as opposed to an answer certain so any speculation is welcome).
