Just how much of an effect does the amount of RAM in your rendering machine effect the speed of your render?? Is there a point when more RAM doesn’t do a thing? How would you determine that point?

Thanks for any info.

watch the task manager,

if your using 90mb ram in a render,  
having 256mb in your machine,  
wont do you any better than having 128mb,
