...If they connect the dots.
- jackcviers3 3y agoWhen consumer software still came on physical media, nearly everything advertised the amount of ram and minimum system and cpu requirements necessary to run the software. That just isn't the case nowadays, so you don't know there will be trouble until it occurs at runtime. I can limit the memory available to ALL the tools I use every day (I only do it for docker and jvm stuff), set priority levels, etc., but it feels very weird for a brand new laptop to hit swap after a few days of uptime.
