Hallo,

  yes and no ... You have to try it to get your own opinion. Just grab the 
development snapshot and you'll see.

  Filled memory has anything with stability? Maybe on the Microsoft Windows 
operating system where memory management lacks intelligence. I'm using 
GNU/Linux in 99% and have no problems on machines with 256, 512 or 1024MB of 
RAM. Free RAM doesn't mean stability or performance, it's common 
misunderstanding ... Your OS should use the RAM for better perfomance or you 
can remove it from your computer and live with 128MB ;)

  For example? OpenOffice.org Base? ;)
