I work with 128 GB SSD + 8 GB RAM. I think less RAM is fine, if you have SSD. The swaps, if there is any swaps, will be faster.
Between verify, whether the RAM is upgradable or not.
- equalarrow 12y agoUm..., swaps?!? This would immediately tell me that I need to get more RAM. For those wondering, I run the following comfortably in 16GB of RAM with SSD: Postgres 9.x Ruby 2.x Rails 4.x Python 2.7 / Flask XCode 6.1.1 Chrome Safari Whatever else apps... I don't think I would trust this in 8GB and feel like I'm productive. Remember, RAM is 10kX-100kX faster than hd, so you can never have enough.
- __Joker 12y agoObviously each has their requirement. For my workload, I get away with 8 GB RAM. Where I run eclipse( 740 MB ) RAM, sbt with 2 GB RAM, and chrome. And environment is more than snappy enough for me. At the end of the day, each to his own.
