My wife is currently running SAS 9.3 on a Windows XP VM using Virtual Box. Her physical hardware is a (relatively) old Mac Book, Core2Duo 1.8 GHz with 2 GB ram.
Going to upgrade her to a new MBP when the refresh happens (hopefully soon!).
Question for those with experience with this - what would lead to the greatest performance boost when running SAS under this use case:
- Max out the RAM?
- Install an SSD?
- Go with the faster processor option?
Any insight or advice is appreciated - thank you!
