What's the recommended 'size' of the machine to run this? I tried to run it on a pretty beefy machine (8 core cpu/32 GB RAM) to use with ~40 odd PDF documents. My observation is that the queries (chat) takes forever and

Ex employee here. Salesforce was the most laid back, rest and vest, coasting culture in my experience. Generous employee benefits, absolutely no work pressure. They took pride in their work life balance. Many employees (in product and marke
