that's crazy to me. I was given a 32GB MBP for work and found it to constantly eat all of the ram and slow down to the point of being useless and require restarts every few days. It took considerable active management to keep more than 4GB free. I upgraded to a higher ram machine now and all of my challenges went away. My main workflows are python dev and data analysis, some CAD modeling with fusion, and inevitably keeping too many chrome tabs open. Still, with what seemed normal to me, 32 GB didn't cut it, but reading these discussions is crazy making since I seem to be the only one. |

This illustrates ignorance of the basics of how memory management works on macOS (e.g., "free" memory is not a determination of whether you need more RAM) https://support.apple.com/guide/activity-monitor/check-if-yo....
