A quick update.
I decided to get a modest PC (i5 6600, 32GB RAM) to replace my archaic one that was giving PixInsight benchmark scores around 200...
For the new machine...
Performance Indices
Total performance ...... 3224
CPU performance ........ 5568
Swap performance ....... 1178
Not revolutionary results, but these indicate that the new PC should be about 15x faster than my previous, now retired PC. Happy with that.
EDIT: After creating 4 swap storage directories in PI the performance has improved significantly:
Performance Indices
Total performance ...... 4422
CPU performance ........ 5616
Swap performance ....... 2356
