Paging Problems

With my multitasking habits, I need to get a second gig of RAM in my G5.  I like to have a lot of applications open at once, and I hide and show them as necessary.  However, when I bring them back, all of their memory has been paged to disk, so it takes far too long to get a response.  Safari turns out to be notoriously bad about this.  Since OS X has Quartz Extreme, the graphical portions of the browser are stored in the VRAM even when the rest of the application gets paged to memory.  If I don't use my Safari windows often enough, I could attempt to use the window later and have the application take several seconds to respond.

This annoyance should be fixed by at least one of two things: get more RAM or quit playing WoW in windowed mode with two browsers, AIM, email, and calendar open at the same time.  At least I use a different computer for music.  It helps me get the proper mix of music and sound effects when they are on different speakers.
