I'm pretty fed up with Lr4's unbelievable amount of hangups and slowness. I'm looking for an alternative program. I've been a huge Lr fan for years, but it's practically unusable now.

My system is an i7 2600K running at 4.4 and 16 gig of RAM. My lightroom catalog is on my SSD and my windows cache is as well. When running LR4, all the processors are working evenly. LR4 has been extremely fast and stable on my system.

Usually the candidates are additional camera support with minor upgrades to software. So in laymens terms, LR4 runs great on your Ferrari PC.

Before the Ferrari, I had a Yugo with 1 processor, 1 hard drive, and 1 Gig of RAM. It was slow and unstable with LR2. Programs are only as good as the machines you use it on.

But to reiterate your point, I just bought 16GB of performance desktop RAM for about $70, so yea no reason not to have abundant RAM. 5D MkIII x2 + a lot of L's.
