Main limiting factor CPU ,memory or hard drive

[StuartR]

Assuming your internet latency and so forth has been optimized what is the main limiting factor that might cause the jamkazam program to hesitate as you move from one menu item to another during a session? as far as I can see on my laptop it's using about 290 megabytes of memory in a Solo session...

My six-year-old laptop only has 4GB of memory so I'm considering upgrading that to 8 or 16 , or going to a solid state drive.... I don't think it would be worth trying to change the CPU in that but I really need to know beyond IO and latency where does the program stress a computer the most

Where to begin....a 6 year old laptop with only 4GB of memory? What OS is it running? I'd remove everything you don't need.... Via ADD/REMOVE programs. Be sure you have the laptop plugged into AC when using JK so the power plan will be optimized.
