Hello everyone,
I just bought a great new MacBook air M3. I bought it with 16 GB RAM, as is often recommended.
But today, I'm wondering if I shouldn't have switched directly to 24 GB RAM?
I've got about a dozen tabs open in Safari + a bit of editing on Lightroom, and here's a (French) screen of the RAM status in the activity monitor.
It already shows 4 GB of swap files in use (the famous swap, right?) and 7 GB of compressed ram.
What do you think?
My usage remains amateur (office, internet, photo and video editing (Raw Fufjilm and 4K gopro - just for fun) but if possible, I'd like to avoid slowing down the Mac in the next two years for these activities...
Keeping in mind that I don't do editing on Lightroom every day...
