Indeed. :)

I find that having more RAM is usually significantly more important than
having marginally faster RAM. IMO, this is mostly because Linux does a
decent job of caching disk I/O into RAM, and disk I/O is always a way
bigger bottleneck than an extra 33MHz of RAM speed, even with a smoking
hot RAID array. ;)
