Is this a linux issue? My Macbook has 16gb ram and running out has literally never been an issue for me. I'm using all of it + 10gb of swap and my computer feels snappy and fast. Chrome with 100+ tabs, discord, slack, codex, chatgpt, all running simultaneously with no issues. Sure, all other things being equal less RAM usage is better, but I can understand why reducing it isn't a priority for them.
- alightsoul 1mo agoThe OS doesn't matter here. The problem is that it's an electron app, hence it has high ram usage
- ninkendo 1mo agoI didn’t say “I’m running into issues due to the ram usage”, I’m saying it uses a lot of ram. My computer also feels snappy and fast, it doesn’t change the fact that 2.2GB is a huge amount of bloat for it not having done anything yet and still sitting idle.
