Your 8G ram should be adequate. More ram may help but it might not make any difference. Is it faster loading if you don't have any other apps running?
It kind of sounds like your Finance software might be trying to load its database into ram (for faster access?). maybe not.
Just now I looked at the same task (launching SEE Finance) on my late 2016 15¡± Quad Core i7 MacBook Pro 2.7 GHz , 16 GBytes RAM, 512 GB internal SSD. The program loaded completely in 10 seconds, and occupied about 850 MB of RAM when it was finished loading. That¡¯s a comparable space to what¡¯s committed on the iMac, where my swap file is twice the size and the total available RAM is half as much.
So, I suspect more RAM might help. I¡¯ll contact the developer for verification or other ideas.
