RAM could go to 32 gigs but not 64. CPU is soldered to the motherboard so not upgradeable. 32 gigs is MINIMUM for that Corona software so yes the laptop you have is not up to the task, even though it is a very good consumer laptop. You are just giving it a very difficult job to do. The only kind of laptop you can get that will handle your work is a mobile workstation like a Zbook and you need to have a Xeon processor and 64 gigs of RAM. Cost is going to be in the range of $4000 US equivalent.

As we (sometimes) say in USA: you cannot send a boy to do a Man's job (or a girl to do a woman's job). If you bumped the memory up to 32 gigs it would obviously work better but the software you are using is about as demanding as any software there is and that is a low voltage processor so it's good but going to be challenged with real heavy lifting.
