    PC RAM in Compilation

    This seems like a silly question with an obvious answer, but I just wanted to make sure.

    How significant would more RAM in a computer speed up compilation time if any? Let's say going from 512mb of RAM to 1.5Gb of RAM.

    I would imagine much of the load in compilation is dealt with in all the CPU's computations, but I figured better ram would help.
