I have 4 writing apps open, itunes, mail, safari 1 tab and fantastical. MB is connected to the 4k ultrafine monitor with lid closed. activity monitor says 1.5 - 2 gb ram catched files and 6 gb used. jumping between pages of apps i notice these hikkups. is it due to ram being packed or is it the processor that cant keep these apps open and runnin. typing this right now it says CPU 82% idle.

is there anyhting i can do to speed the mb up so that jumps between apps are smoother and also using these simpler apps is smoother?
