Memory and Bandwidth Recommendations
The requirements below are general guidelines, but your needs may vary depending on other factors. For example, if you are sharing your bandwidth with other applications, you may need more bandwidth than is recommended below for your license. If your system is low on resources or if you're seeing performance problems, adding additional RAM, CPU speed and hard drive speed may alleviate these problems.
