Are you on 8.1 or 8? I can't imagine 10 being much more efficient besides using dx12 to sell it. I'd recommend 8.1 and classic shell until 10 is finalized.

I've got a Windows 10 question. Is it supposed to be lighter than Windows 8?
I'm currently running a small power friendly laptop only having a Core 2 Duo 1.2Ghz X2 processor and 2gb ram.
Windows 8 works ok but being faster is always a good thing...
That said, I will shortly upgrade the ram from 2Gb to 4Gb and will obviously re-format to a 64 bit version of Windows...
There should be quite a difference in speed with double the ram and the 64 bit operating system...
Not tried 10036 on a real machine, but I did install 9926 on real hardware and it lagged like a b1tch, reinstalled 8.1 and it was smooth and snappy again - I installed this 10036 in VMWare and there's next to no changes since 9926 so I wouldn't expect it to be much different, plus MS bundle a load of feedback/keylogger cr4p in these builds which slows them down

1st with 4gig and W8 64bit you will be faster than your 2gig and W8 32bit
2nd W10 is NOT released and drivers are ALL in BETA... so: compared with a W8 (.1?) release and optimised driver, W10 could look slow and laggy.
in other words: DON'T UPDATE YET IF YOU WANT A FASTER, 100% STABLE OS
but yes result of the beta are very very nice yes... wait and see.

I'm really looking forward to when windows 10 finally releases. I'm sick of 8.1 and only got it for optimization.
