Comment on Asus Co-CEO: MacBook Neo Is a 'Shock' to the PC Industry
LillyPip@lemmy.ca 2 days agoThat’s not true at all.
I constantly have Illustrator, Photoshop, Sibelius, Scrivener, and about 100 browser tabs open on my 10 year old MacBook with 8gb of RAM without issue.

What version or macOS?

Sequoia.

That is pretty surprising to me. I noticed a significant bump in resource requirements for Sequoia. I’ve got a stack of macs next to me I’ll see if I can find one still running sequoia and reassess my opinion.

Oh, if it matters, I also run Memory Clean 2 to monitor RAM usage and do Extreme Clean from time to time.
I forgot about this because it’s basically muscle memory at this point, but maybe this is making a difference?

Yeah, I’m not sure about Tahoe since my machine is too old so it won’t let me upgrade, but at least Sequoia has been fine with 8GB.
