In that case, if the computer has to resort to disk (swap), most probably
more RAM might help. How is the access pattern? Does the calculation
need access to "all of its address space" "all of the time"?

In that case, there seems you have no choice. OTOH this will be the
pessimal access pattern wrt memory caches (which will be stretched
half as thinly with the more RAM), but probably you know all of that.

Looking forward to your results.

Thanks!
