I upgraded the server RAM and "ballpark the size of the table on disk as the amount of memory" is absolutely correct. See my answer below.

I'll try: SET STATISTICS IO ON and report back. More info: The queries are 100% selects. Each query takes several minutes. The server also runs the small app which does the querying and dumps results into Excel, but I doubt this affects server performance.
