Nov 2, 2017 · I actually ran 8GB for a similar setup to this when I only had an M1 Macbook Air. It was quite miserable. I thought 16GB would be enough but it's just barely ok. I always have to think about closing apps to free up more memory. Configuring a custom Macbook with 32GB of RAM could delay shipping by weeks/months.

CPU wise is difficult - 6 performance + 2 economy cores in the base M1 Pro vs. 4 faster performance cores + 4 economy in the M2. My gut tells me that the M2 is going to give the base, 8-core M1 Pro a run for its ...
