The only reason 8GB RAM can be considered "low" instead of "appropriate for most workloads" is Chrome.

The only reason 8GB RAM can be considered "low" instead of "appropriate for most workloads" is Chrome.
- Semaphor 8y agoI don't even run Chrome outside of testing compatibility. I do run Visual Studio, often multiple instances. Right now I don't, only FF, a few apps and Stellaris (which only uses around 500 MB), yet I'm still at nearly 16GB of Memory usage. 8GB might be enough for many (most?) people, but not for me, and it has nothing to do with Chrome.
- seba_dos1 8y agoI also sometimes long for more RAM, but those situations definitely aren't what can be sanely considered "most workloads".
