Use a machine with more RAM then. If your machine doesn't have at least 8GB of RAM then you're doing it wrong.

- arbie 9y agoI can't tell if you are being serious. RAM prices have plateaued due to production shortages in the past few years, and many (high-volume) $200 laptops/Chromebooks do not come with 8GB of RAM.
- stordoff 9y agoRegardless of how much RAM you have, 800MB for a chat app is ridiculous. If every common utility started using so much RAM, "[u]se a machine with more RAM" stops being viable - you can only cram so much RAM in current machines, and if you start peeling off a couple of GB because you need to run more than one chat client that's a huge loss.
