Mavericks adds ram compression. I don't know if it will turn out to be just a gimmick. I have been testing on a 2009 iMac with only 2GB ram w/ Intel SSD and it does just fine. Compressing 200-300MB when I check Activity Monitor.
- glhaynes 13y agoI hadn't noticed the "compressed" field in Activity Monitor, thanks for pointing that out. On my 8 GB Mac running quite a few things (Eclipse, Xcode, tons of Safari tabs, all the "standard" built-in apps open), mine's showing "Compressed: 3.21 GB" right now.
