Runs much better.

one gig will swap to disk.
xp pro footprint is ~1.2G
anything over 1.5G SH4 will not need or use.

You might find that even though SH4 likes 2 gigs of RAM, that spare memory will help you in multiplayer, so it's all good.

Incidentally, one of the nice features of the Vista OS (yes, there are a few) is the 'powerboost' where you can plug a flash drive into your PC which Vista will use as spare RAM, so if anyone is using Vista and struggling, try that one.
