General usage
- 3-6 tabs in brave browser
- Spotify always open
- betterdisplay app always open
- rectangle app always open
- coconut battery app always open
- league of legends app (causes Mac mini m4 to be hot and no sound of fan at all after 5-6 hours of gaming!)
- iPhone mirroring
Ram usage around 13.4gb/18gb. Memory pressure for ram is always around 30% range and green.
I did a small stress test by opening 4-5 new video YouTube tabs in brave browser- ram usage remained unchanged but memory pressure raised 3-5%.
I did a higher stress test by opening in new tab : 20-25 tabs of YouTube videos simultaneously playing and the memory pressure turned yellow (50-60%) usage , with the above list of tasks ongoing at the same time. Ram swap used was around 490mb.
In summary, base model is more than sufficient.
