How Much Ram?

[mikehalloran]

If it helps, you can narrow down a process you think has a memory leak in Activity Monitor and then directly check it with the leaks command in terminal with the process # ie. $ "leaks 1576". This is a ad ridden safari tab.

Of course. It would not do any good in my case. There's nothing I can do about it except place occasional trouble tickets.

Chasing memory leaks is like playing Whack-A-Mole. Life is too short and having enough RAM means I don't have to deal with them.

I wasn't looking for 128GB by the way. I stumbled onto this 14 Core machine for less than a 10 Core with 64GB RAM. 2TB on board was a minimum req.
