[2024-05-05T10:16:03Z] <Doomking> quick question, there wouldn't be much of an improvement from upgrading the ram from 16gb to 32gb for a processor with 4 cores right? [2024-05-05T10:18:15Z] <Doomking> since the most needed for 4 cores would be only 16gb just in case each thread takes 2gb (but from what i have seen it usually doesn't reach 2gb per thread) [2024-05-05T10:20:52Z] <Doomking> technically, i currently have 8gb, but bestbuy only sells it in set, so debating whether to go with 16gb or 32gb [2024-05-05T10:23:51Z] <Doomking> another option is also amazon, where crucial sells a single 8gb stick [2024-05-05T10:29:04Z] <sad_plan> Id say youre assumtion is correct. if you for w/e reason use up all that ram from rebuilding your system, you can just use swapspace instead. I have a 4 core myself, and 16gb. I more or less never run out of memory anymore. laptop came with 8gb ootb [2024-05-05T10:29:52Z] <sad_plan> havings lots of vms can obviously also use up all that ram, but if you dont really use vms, then I dont see any issues in this [2024-05-05T10:31:17Z] <Doomking> i forgot about having swapfile [2024-05-05T10:32:31Z] <Doomking> i guess when building, i can also set my MAKEFLAG -j1
