If that’s your goal this machine is still too powerful. Web apps generally care about single thread performance. The machine has a single thread performance that exceeds any and all Intel/AMD processors, according to Geekbench (A18 Pro: 3445; Ryzen 9 9950X: 3385). My own test for ensuring my web app performs well involves a machine less than half as fast, and my web app runs with all assertions turned on.

- klausa 8mo agoThose chart seem _very_ suspect when it comes to Apple CPUs, to the point I don't think they're worth considering much. M3 Ultra being fastest in single core than M4 or A19 Pro doesn't make any sense. Those chart also suggest that M3->M4 was a _regression_ in performance, which, is... an interesting conclusion.
