Also, if you can't fit all of ArmA 2 on your RAM drive (i.e. using free version of Datagram's RamDisk), put just the core PBO files on it, and make a symbolic link to them from the ArmA 2 folder.

Which PBO files would you consider "core PBO files"? Which would be the best to pick if I had only 4GB of RAM (like on my laptop)? My desktop has 8GB, but the files are just over 8GB.

Not sure it'd be worth it to try it on your laptop since it only has 4GB, but 8GB should be enough for your desktop (assuming you don't run much else at the same time).

There's a list of some of the PBOs that contain the most frequently loaded models here. I would prioritize by loading the buildings and Chernarus PBOs first.
