Thanks for your input. Overall that sounds exactly the same as myself though with a few different apps. Had to chuckle at your Firefox comment, though I think i'm up to two jillion tabs open across multiple groups :) Interesting that at 12Gb, double what I currently have you are pushing near the limit, slightly less if you…
