I'm  running it at work on NT4 Workstation (P2 350 Dual, ~200Mb RAM) and it
takes about 12 hours to
complete a data set.  I can run anything (Corel, Pagemaker...) without any
great loss of performance.
CPU utilization stays at 100%.  At home I am using it on a P2 333, ~210 Mb
RAM and I do find it slows
the system down.  It can take as much as 50 hours to complete a data set,
but I often close it to improve
speed.
