16 v. 32 GB v. faster processor for new 15" MBP Pro

[andrewj]

Thoughts about 32 v. 16 GB for the updated 15" MBP Pro? If you only had $400 more to spend, would you get the 32 GB or would you get the faster 2.9 GHz processor over the 2.6 GHz processor?

I mainly do a fair amount of Lightroom and do have lots of applications running.

Does your mac currently show high volume of ram pressure? Do you need 32GB?

I'm running Lightroom, with lots of apps open on an iMac with 8GB and its fine.

Faster processor means more thermal throttle.
