I don't know which would be faster 4x256 sticks or a 1GB stick. Not sure if there would even be much of a notable difference.

Anyone? Oh and yes EQ2 does most certainly run better on 1 GB RAM..
I'll just comment on how much better my system ran after I upgraded. I had 512MB (2x256) and the when I zoned it would load really slow (like go get a drink or rr break, come back and still wait for it to finish), often times the game would "pause" and my hd light would be solid when I'd run aways in any city (I'm assuming the game was swapping memory on the hard drive), and when I would right-click on an npc or item it would "pause" for a 20-30 seconds or so... very annoying.
After upgrading to 1GB (4x256) the game runs so much smoother. All of the problems I mentioned went away. My other system specs are P4 2.8Ghz, 8x AGP GeForce 5500 w/ 256MB.
I used the EQ2 offer from kingston memory that came with the game and just bought the recommended ram for my system.
