Haha! Actually, I have a remote desktop set up inside in the Virtual Machine so I can access it from work But yes; no debating that point.
Your assumptions are on the spot, though I have allocated 10GBs of RAM..
Thank you so much, Simon. I'll see what the readings say and I'll get back to you on it. That way, if some other bloke shows up with the same concern, you can link him to this post.
Much appreciated!
