I have been doing 75+ tracks as a 7.1 submix fairly regularly on a 3 year old Mac Book Pro (2.4 Ghz) with 4 gigs of ram and eSATA drives on a PTLE system....

I don't think the gig of ram would be THAT much of a difference... Where are you playing your tracks back from? I would recommend on an eSATA connection or FW800 minimum...

Any other info you can give us on your rig so we can narrow down the choke point?
