This is consumer marketing; “people who have a solid grasp of fundamental SoC architecture” are not the target audience.

- im3w1l 6y agoWhat do people with such a grasp have to say about it?
- wmf 6y agoM1's performance is great, but there isn't much evidence to attribute it to the memory subsystem. Also, people wanting to fit 32GB worth of apps into 16GB is just wishful thinking that isn't supported by evidence either.
- mamp 6y agoQuite a lot of testing in Final Cut and Logic etc showing very good performance and efficient swap. So for most consumer apps it works well. No magic if you need a big block of memory for ML or analytics.
- AnthonyMouse 6y agoDo we know what benefit they're getting by putting the memory on the chip to begin with? I had initially assumed there was some non-trivial performance advantage in it, but now people are saying not so much, so why did they do it? It seems weird to artificially limit the max memory if there was no advantage in it.
