Try Linux ;)
Seriously, I've found the Linux (sorry Warp, Unix) version parses and renders
much faster with memory-hungry scenes, the advantage remains even if both Win
and Linux run way out of physical RAM with the scene. For some reason though, it
tends to be slower wih purely cpu-intensive scenes...
