I'll agree w/ that. I have a K6/2-500 and was running 128 megs. I added
another 128 megs and my seti times have jumped an average of 9 hrs per WU.
I went from an avg of 24 hrs to about 33 hrs. It's kind of frustrating. I
have my Seti running all the time. Adding the ram should't be hurting my
times ....that much should it?
