most dev workflows from pre 2021 can probably run just fine on a NEO - i think once you get into conductor / 8 terminals with claude code territory that’s where things start to slow down

i just got an m5 max with 128gb of ram specifically to run local llms

Does Claude Code take up that many local resources? I thought the heavy lifting was in the cloud?

Claude Code still runs things on your local machine. So if you have some pretty expensive transpilation, or resolving dependency trees that needs musl recompilation, or doing something rust, you still need a reasonable ammount of local firepower. More so if you're running multiple instances of them.

Heh, I also upgraded to run local LLMs. As a tiny aside, codex does not burn resources like CC does.
