I'll add a very important one - what OS are you using? If you're on a
PC, this is the wiki entry on it so far -

On the other hand, if you're on Mac - although my Mac OS9 days are long
behind me I seem to recall that if you assign memory *inside* PARIS (ie
in the config window) you need to also add memory to the PARIS app - do
it by quitting, selecting the app, doing "get info" and upping the
memory allocation to the app in the resulting window. Not doing this
can cause lockups even if you have lots of RAM, because the config is
basically telling the app to use more RAM than the OS has assigned to
it. Also don't assign it too much of your physical memory - leave lots
of unassigned RAM for normal OS operations plus any VST plugs you're
using (if I recall, their RAM usage isn't part of the PARIS allocation).
