    Maybe this is true if you use Windows. If you use Linux on your PC versus macOS on a MacBook you will probably find the PC performs comparably if not better.

      Oh totally, Linux is in the same ballpark as, if not better than, Macs when it comes to RAM usage. Windows is just a hog

        While that might have some impact, it’s not really the main problem with Windows. For the most part it’s how it’s actually engineered. For a start look at their compiler.
