minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink33•10 months ago There’s no trophy you get at the end of your life for “most cumulative ram left idle” Some people like to use more than 1 app you know. Also, RAM is never ever idle. It is used as filesystem cache when not used by programs thus speeding up read accesses significantly.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•10 months agoAlright, let’s nitpick! No, it is never ever idle, every few cycles is a refresh cycle, which is work.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•10 months agoIt’s great that you mention this, but this is a different layer of abstraction than what we were previously talking about.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink0•10 months agoHonestly even with more than 1 application open it shouldn’t be an issue. Maybe with a really old computer, but anything modern really should handle an electron app just fine

Just to nitpick, RAM is usually not idle.
