I would rule this out. You have plenty of RAM. Unless you are editing some DVDs in the background or something :-)
Mac OS X uses it's "virtual memory" all the time. Virtual memory includes physical RAM + disk space as overflow RAM. The effect is that Mac OS X will never run out of memory, instead it will start paging memory to disk and slowly churn churn churn until it's dead in the water.
Use Utilities/Process Viewer.app to see how much memory an app is using. **
Use the terminal command vm_stat for arcane information about the virtual memory system.
** It might be hard to separate your stack's memory usage from Revolution unless you build a standalone and run it.
