size, speed, performance

Here is a general design question. I'm designing a database and started
adding background graphics, textures and colors to my forms. They really
look great but I noticed that my file grew from 2 mb to 30 mb (even after
compacting). My question is how does this affect the speed and performance
of the program?

Does the whole database load and take up your resources or just the form
your are in. Assuming someone leaves the database open all day and uses
other programs as well, could it freeze up (and maybe corrupt the database)?
If it is being used on a new Win XP machine, how much RAM should be in the
computer?

Thanks for help,
Ken Ivins
