Question by Choimsung · Aug 22, 2017 at 01:52 AM · memory usage ram

Running UNITY with 8RAM

Hello,

I am currently running Unity 5 with my MacBook Pro 2013 Retina 8RAM. While running I usually run Safari for tutorials, Visual Studio 2017, and a Messenger Program.

Well the problem is, I always get these Memory Shortage problem, so I have to shut down all the programs. The things I'm working on are the basic tutorials in the Unity Website, and I assume theres nothing heavy in that.

Is it natural to suffer from memory shortage with a 8RAM MacBook? or is it the other programs that are making things slow.

Thanks.
