“Heavy lifting” here being running 108 MB of JavaScript to render shopping cart of an online store, correct?
Or consuming 2 GB of RAM to have Teams running in the background doing nothing?
Yeah, if we got rid of that as a result of RAM shortages, that’d be great.
You are absolutely correct that much of modern software is extremely bloated. So maybe a silver lining is that less memory for the next couple of years will also force developers to produce leaner software. Electron apps being the first in line.
