just a question :)

Hi Guys,
I´m using a macbook w/ 4Gb of Ram.
In the preferences of Cross I noticed that the Audio-Cache is set to 60% which would be 2,4Gb but it´s "only" 1,23Gb.
Why´s that?

Because Cross is a 32 bits app, and thus can't handle more than 2GB!

Ah ok, didnt think of that
So does having more than 2gb actually help better performance?
I´m just interested as i might buy a netbook for gigs i have to travel to.
cheers

It might help as your system has more memory for other apps but I'm not sure you can really see the difference if your machine is quite clean...

Avoid using a netbook if you can.

I just thought it would be handy size-wise and if the specs are right...

That's the problem! Netbooks in general are not made for perfomance, they are made for mobility. Nevertheless good luck!

The min specs is something like C2D 1.8 or 2Ghz, I don't have in mind any netbooks that can benchmark to this level.
I would be happy if you proove I'm wrong, but they're more into energy saving & mobility than into heavy processing.

You´re right, the fastest right now are 1,7Ghz.
