Not really, when even low end laptops have 4GB RAM. There's nothing horrible about using the resources you're given.

- mhurron 14y agoNEW low end laptops. My Linux desktop maxes out at 4GB. Not everyone is buying a new machine every 12 months. Resource constraints are still something that people have to work with. When you're developing for yourself its fine to just make it work on what you have but when you're trying to get others to use your project 'works for me, buy new hardware' isn't going to win you fans.
- brazzy 14y agoSure, you shouldn't use the most recent hardware as your target, but neither should you spend development time and code complexity to avoid overtaxing 10 year old hardware.
