The difference is between not enough and enough RAM. If you didn´t notice any difference then you clearly had enough already.
Going from 128MB to 1GB on my pc was a big difference just like going adding 32MB Fastmem to the A1200.

And I used Adaware and Antispy  and had  the interface set to "custom" no shadows or other crap.

I don´t know how much memory MacOS needs at all but if it was an amiga you wouldn´t notice the difference.
It also depends on what programs you run obivously a 3d-program benefits more than a textviewer, they biggest difference for me is that  with 1GB I can run UAE without shutting down all running programs first.
