the 8gb ram meme

install gentoo

thing is, what you're doing on your computer should take even less than that

Do you even ramdisk?

>>57096871
literally why
I'm on SSD, this shit already flies for any task. The disk I/O is not the bottleneck any more.

>>57096864
chrome is a bit of a ram-heavy fucker on the best of days and this is like 100 tabs open.
what do you think it should be?

>>57096849
Holy shit, 4.93 GB just for that??

>>57096862
Don't need gen2 when Ubuntu is Good Enough™

Don't forget to turn off your swap too bro.

>>57096924
I always install without swap

% free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:          15932         494       15140          54         298       15322
Swap:             0           0           0

How did I do?

Efficient 2bh. Why the fuck would anyone ever want to run anything on their 16GB, beats me.

>No VM's or RAMdisk
>Expects high RAM usage

There's a reason the plebian consumer still doesn't usually get 16GB RAM on a 'standard' machine

>implying VM doesn't run with less memory
Plebian consumer already runs Java VM.

unity's layout is redundant

gnome-shell is better

a normal panel is best
