Win 10...more memory...load balancing...SPLAT...less performance...Sheesh

I've been (with the help of the great Jim Roseberry) trying to track down and fix any and all anomalies in my DAW which might be causing the poor performance I'm getting since switching to Win 10 and upping my memory from 12gigs to 24gigs.  I'm using the latest edition of  SPLAT and have tried both with and without the new load balancing thingy and without is mucho better, at least on my setup.  
 
My basic problem is that I now am drastically limited in both track count and plugin count before running into pop/crackle and stutterville.  I have to freeze or bounce most all tracks and have my latency maxed out (1024) to mix projects that are much less track and plug intensive than old X3 projects which had many tracks loaded with plugins...only a few frozen...and running fine at much lower latency settings.  
 
I loves me some SPLAT and thought that doubling my memory and upgrading to Win 10 would usher in a new era of major mixing ability.  But, alas, no.  I realize that many of the new plugins I am enamored of are pretty cpu intensive but this problem happens even without them in the projects.  
 
I am sorely tempted to sell my Kemper Profiler and just let Jim build me a newer, hotter killer diller machine...but I'm not sure that would solve anything.
 
If any of you have been or are going down a similar path please share any info you have.  I'd shore appreciate it.
 
Thanks for listening.
 

Oh Jim made things VASTLY better...he remoted in to my DAW and fixed and cleaned up all manner of things.  It was tres fun to watch.  I tried to remember as much as I could as the mouse went places and did things.  He's a true wonder.

Yup...I'm suspecting it's a Win 10 deal.  But, dimbulb that I am, what do I know?
 

I don't think the amount of ram has a big effect on daw performance, given that you have some minimum required to run, other than loading and playing back samples and instruments.
