Apple insists 8GB unified memory equals 16GB regular RAM
My M1 iMac typically uses 12-14 GB of its RAM with Finder/WindowServer using 3-6 depending on how recently I've restarted. I have 13 apps open currently; Quarkxpress, Preview, Affinity Photo, and Pages currently using the most RAM. (Currently on 11.7.10 due to be newspaper owner/publisher/editor/reporter/photographer/bookkeeper/IT guy.)
I try to close as much as possible before opening mess of ProRAW pics in Affinity Photo, which naturally causes massive memory pressure. After a couple of minutes, system seems to do well reallocating RAM and giving AfP as much as it wants, often 8 GB or so.
My next electronic abacus will be Studio. I would like to settle for 32GB, but fear that would be a grave error. Course, I also now see little reason to buy an M2 Max when new chips will surely be on way. (As if there's a time when new chips aren't on way ...) -
Hands on with all the new features in iOS 17.1
“For devices with Dynamic Island, if you turn the flashlight on, a flashlight icon will appear. Now, you won't feel silly with the flashlight on while you're using the phone. If the flashlight is on, you can also turn it off from the Dynamic Island. No need to swipe into Control Center.”Buh, that’s case in 17.0.3 as well. -
