Don't take my words for granted, I'm a Linux-user :-)

In Windows you have two performance-models and you are probably running the 'Applications'-type.

If you open the Task-Manager and add the "Virtual Memory"-column you can see if any applications are swapped out.

Applications are (usually?) swapped out when they are minimized (Application-model only me thinks), but I don't know how swapping is done when an application is not in front z-wise.

You could try the "Background"-model and see if that improves your situation.

You'll find the performance-model options in System under Control-Panel.
