Well If you have enough memory, nothing is paged out, on a very low memory
system yes it'd have probubly an effect. Obviously have the scratch on anther
drive would be benifical. Especally since sich a system wuld be useing the system
page file freqently.

For one I understand CS2 supports multi-threading and takes advatage
of some things CS1 doesn't , but then again I'm a little fuzzy on the topic
