Happy to try it, but could you explain the reasoning? When I tested PS last night with those settings I had no other applications running (normal background processes, of course). My thought was to give PS as many resources as possible to really see it fly.
It’s very simple. If you set PS to maximum it starts taking RAM from the system. If the system doesn’t have enough RAM, it starts swapping PS memory. The end result: PS acts like badly.
Starting with Mavericks, OS X is using the entire RAM for everything: app caches, file caches, etc.
