Cannot emphasize enough how important it is nowadays for any serious work to have bigger RAM. For a machine with 128GiB memory, you can reside a lot of pre-computed results comfortably in RAM, and substantially speed up your computations.
- jkestner 11y agoCareful - "serious work" sounds like "true Scotsman". I think you're right that RAM will limit an iOS device's ability to deal with huge chunks of data, but to borrow a metaphor, that's increasingly a truck's task. I was going to use the example of large graphics files needing a lot of RAM, but as the design field has gone from print to web, the resolution demands are much less, too. Designers using desktop computers to design print publications are a dying breed.
