How do these specs work on this model? How does it compare?

How do these specs on the 13" handle?

How do they compare to the 15" base TB?

I love portability and am wondering if this would be able to handle hard logic x pro? Thats basically my only concern. I say hard because I plan on doing a lot with it.

I'd do 16gigs of ram over the i7 processor. In the processor tests I saw, the i7 was barely any better than the i5. I believe it was a mere 2-3% slower.

The ONLY time I could get the 13" MacBook Pro 8gig to lag is when I had 32 apps open with like 27 tabs. Then 15 in chrome. Mind you, chrome is NOT any sorts optimized, and the apple audience have constantly stated that it should not be used unless absolutely required.

I need chrome for one application, so I have it and use it for just that single sight.

Do not buy a laptop without 16gb of ram. Period.
