Specced out M1 (except storage): * 32GB RAM would not have been sufficient, glad I went for 64. * CPU is exceptional, but significant gains would be seen with more power (or code/process optimisation): unit tests (Robolectric) still break the 'flow' threshold (1s). Xcode compiles + full test suite runs break the 'attention' threshold (10s). * GPU is occasionally useful, but I don't do much ML/video work Usage: * I have enough RAM to keep 3 IDEs open + various electron apps + Office Suite + Windows/Ubuntu VM + 2/3 phone emulators + up to a few hundred Chrome Tabs. Fans are silent and laptop is cold. * Fans spin heavily when running a full unit test suite (JVM/Android) * Fans spin heavily when gaming (via Parallels) * Fans spin slightly when running Stable Diffusion |
