[humanser] Computer Performance

It is hard to know if System Access would be faster without actually 
trying it -- but my educated guess would be no, probably 
not.  Certainly by today's standards one gigabyte of memory isn't 
overly generous, but it isn't bad either.  Unless your CPU is slow or 
limited, you should get "adequate" performance.  I know that is a 
subjective word, but ...

Are you running multiple applications at the same time?  Is your 
computer loading up various programs at startup?  Either of these 
things, or both, could hinder performance.
