Microsoft once tried to reduce Windows RAM usage by 20 percent but failed. Now Windows 11 may finally fix memory issues in 2026 updates.

    ok. is it even remotely more cost-effective than doing the old-fashioned optimizing?

      Probably not but maybe. It’s a gamble that I’m guessing most MBAs would love to make!

        i guess a better way is just make something less RAM heavy from the get go.

          Good luck with that if it’s being vibe coded.

            i don’t think vibe coding will be that sophisticated any time soon.

              As long as they are based on LLMs, I don’t think it ever will be. But it will get better at pretending it is and passing tests.

                the more i know about LLM and their numerous issues the less enthusiastic i am about this whole current AI thing.
