That ridiculous purchase is fully on you, my friend. You would have been absolutely more than fine with 16GB, or even 32GB if you're scared.
But given that quadro, I feel like this wasn't at all a protest, but rather you do some sort of resource heavy work such as 3d simulations or rendering. Yes, these pursuits have always been resource intensive. No, it's not the fault of electron.
- ivanmontillam 5y agoI don't regret a single cent of it. Nope, I don't do anything specialized, other than running some virtual machines while debugging and CI/CD pipelines. I've never exceeded 24 Gb of RAM in usage. At some point, I would like to run an small cloud infraestructure on this thing.
- hedora 5y agoMy 32GB, 2018 vintage work laptop is reporting 27 GB used, 4.13 cached, and 3.9GB swapped out. I have two web browsers, VS code (remote mode only), and slack open. About 4GB is being used by corporate crapware. I use Firefox as a json viewer, so it’s using 0.5GB. Emacs is using 50MB and my imap client is using 260MB Various UIs frequently hang waiting for swap. 32 GB is not enough, even though I’m using it like a dumb terminal.
