I use a relatively old Macbook that wasn't particularly powerful when it came out (i5, 8Gb). The only time the fans spin up is when cargo needs to compile a billion dependencies for some crate that probably doesn't even need half of them. I use zero electron apps.
It's probably the electron apps.
>I had a Mac Pro (16gb ram, 6 cores) that was less than two years old(!!!) and went in circles with Apple support but Apple could not figure out why my computer kept freezing up. So eventually I bought a new iMac with 32gb ram and 4 cores.
Why would you throw more money at Apple if their support wasn't even able to address your concerns...

- platinumrad 8y agoThat's fair--MacOS is still the king of "it just works", most of the time. But hardware lasts a very long time these days, even if it sometimes seems like developers are trying their hardest to ruin that for us.
