1. Is additional RAM any RAM used over 256 mb, so 3.75 GB for a 4 GB machine?

2GB additional ram. From the first link in my last post:

> but they’re just multiplied by 2x, 4x, or 8x. So `shared-cpu-8x` costs about $14.72/mo and includes 2GB RAM.

From the second link:

> If you had run the extra 256MB RAM for a whole 31-day month the RAM would have cost you about $1.30

1. $25/month was a rough estimate from the $14.72 figure with 2GB additional ram to bring you to a 4GB total. Both of these were calculated for 31 days of continuous use:

so 2GB / 256GB = 8; (8 \* $1.30/mo) + $14.72/mo = $25.12/mo
