    Hi people.

    I have a G5 dual 2ghz G5 power mac 2.5GB ram. Have been using VI/VE and have Special Ed.

    I can get around 16 instances in VI/VE before my CPU starts getting close to maxed out.

    Even when in stop mode and 16 Instances the CPU still shows as running high.

    I was thinking of adding more Ram to get more instruments but seeing the CPU meter in Activity Monitor have i basically hit the CPU ceiling with the Powermac? And would it be a waste to add more RAM? Is there a tips/tricks of reducing CPU burden?

    Cheers in advance
