Re: RAM & Pro Tools
Lag is not usually brought on with low amounts of ram for the most part. The problems he might be facing is, an outdated cpu, FireWire 400, and underperforming system specs. Otherwise, a very informative thread about ram.

The problem with the waiting for Apple silicone native is, it drops support for intel. By the way, how could your system lag from performing the suggested procedure.

Re: RAM & Pro Tools
So then you'll be on outdated CPU?

You’re on the 5.1. I have a 2.1 but that’s besides the point, amongst more modern cpus I have.

Re: RAM & Pro Tools
Guys, the only way of knowing if you have enough RAM is to open Activity Monitor, keep it open while you work, and after the session go to Memory page and see how much swap has been used. If it says zero you have more than you need.

Re: RAM & Pro Tools
Swap means writing something from memory to your system drive to make room for other things needed to fit in memory. Then the stuff gets read back into memory when needed, and that activity is called swapping. It was a real problem when system drives were slow spinners, but now that SSD has 3gbps throughput it is already faster than memory of 80's computer
