I hate having any more tabs open than I absolutely need. Right now, I have none. I'm probably gonna either fire up a YouTube video or find someone to watch on Twitch here in a minute, at which point I'll have one tab open. I'm not gonna say exactly how much RAM I have, but I have as much RAM as my motherboard will take, so I can definitely afford to open more than one tab. I just don't see any reason to, frankly, and it drives me up the wall.

Why so secretive of your ram?

[–] StephenTallentyre@lemmy.world 17 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Okay, fine. I have 192 GB of RAM.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 24 points 2 weeks ago

You could handle at least 5 chrome tabs with that.

Oh wowwww. Look at mr/mrs bigshot over here with 192 GB of ram.

[–] StephenTallentyre@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

The machine I had before this had 4 GB, lol. That's why I put so much of the budget into RAM when I built this one.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I mean, you can never have too much ram.

But if you don't use it in its entirety, it is kind of useless.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

That's the system's job. It can cache stuff or whatever.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

192GB is way to big to be used as a cache

However, you probably could run some of the huge language models

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

You're underestimating the cache.

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

You are underestimating writebacks. You won't use that much on a normal filesystem and with ZFS you will only use that with bigger amounts of data
