I am curious about the M1 max for the top performing configuration, wonder if there is a business need for it over an M1 pro with the same storage and memory. Especially since they are mentioning the few hundred dollars a windows pro licence would cost as a reason not to get windows laptops.
- mwint 4y agoI bought an M1 Max for the extra displays support, and the 64gb RAM support. Not that I need 64g, that was more because I found a decent deal on one that happened to be 64g. But I sure don’t complain about it :)
- Halan 4y agoGood point for the extra displays but in this case they are using only 32gb which makes it a bit overkill unless they do video editing work
- mobiuscog 4y agoOr they use docker for mac
- Halan 4y agoExactly, is hard to get really high memory usage pressure with 32gb and only by running containers with docker for mac latest engine. Sure, it would try grab as many GB as you set in its configuration but you won’t actually get high memory usage unless running something like a dozen of KinD clusters with worker nodes all at the same time
- mwint 4y agoI run Docker for Mac with like 10 MariaDB and Redis containers, no memory issues. I limit Docker to 8GB and see no problems.
- baal80spam 4y agoDocker will eat this 32GB for breakfast.
- dylan604 4y ago>Not that I need 64g, Blasphemy!! I hope you got out of the way of the lightning bolt that surely came to strike you down for such preposterous speach! That's like saying "I don't need that 4TB SSD, 512GB is plenty"
