Once upon a time Travis Sullivan shaped the electrons to say...
>Does upgrading the Portmaster help performance at all? Ram is so
>cheap and would be worth it. Does it help ping times?

Unless the PM is running out of RAM, adding more doesn't do anything.
You just have more unused RAM. 4MB should be plenty for all but a
very few users. Those with 1MB might want to upgrade, as ComOS is going
to keep slowly growing. And RAM is cheap now.
