After increasing your RAM from 256MB to 1GB it will feel like you bought a new computer.
512MB is the minimum I'd ever use for XP/2003.
Just the fact you're at 256MB now.. I know your XP system is constantly swapping data to and from your hard disk because there's not enough RAM.
The cheapest RAM is a 1,000x faster than a top class hard drive. Adding RAM to an computer is the cheapest way to get a performance increase.
How much faster really depends. But if you do a lot of web surfing, and are on "busy" sites ( lots of flash, javascript like Myspace ) you'll notice that pages perform better and that movement from browser window to browser window is immediate rather than the delays you're likely experiencing now.

Should be much faster, Your computer can read physical memory directly.
Anything not in RAM has to be searched for on the hard drive and then loaded into the RAM before your computer can use it.
