Hardware Upgrade --> useful?

Robert Kaye
Running Astaro v7 on a pentium3, 900mhz, 512mb ram, 20gb hd. 

Dashboard shows 6-19%cpu, 75-81%RAM, 8-10% Swap, 2% log disk and 16% data disk.

question: Would I notice any improvement in upgrading any of the hardware?  The only thing I am constrained with on this unit is that it has a max of 512mb ram [:(].

    Does look like anything is overrun. Like drees said - is anything slow? 
    If you're using HTTP content filter/proxy, you may benefit from more RAM, otherwise, probably not.

    nothing seems slow; when using the client, clicking on the menu items sometimes takes a few seconds, so it isn't very snappy, but neither is it unbearable...  I'm running: firewall, Intrusion Protection, http proxy, anti virus, anti-spyware, email encryption.  I'll probably add smtp proxy, pop3 and anti-spam at some point.
