Hello forum!
This is my first post. I am looking for those who use a Mac Mini (current model: 2.4 GHz 2'1') with 8GB.
Question 1:
Does it run LR3.2 and PS CS4 smoothly, when used simultaneously? Will 8GB do? Processor fast enough?
Question 2:
Does it process 21 MP 5D-mkII files smoothly?
My hardware:
Macbook 2.' GHz/ 4GB RAM, 16'GB HD
Cinema HD display 3'"
Lots of drives
Additional Information:
My Macbook 2.' GHzwith 4 GB memory is full (Page-outs hits over 1 GB) when using LR3.2 and PS CS4 simultaneously. 4GB is all I can stash into it. Apparently I need more than 4 GB.
My 2.' GHz Macbook (mb466, late 2''8 model) is fast enough (well, acceptable) if I only use either LR or PS4 exclusively. LR3.2 will use up to 2.6 GB alone during full image processing. It will stay below 1 GB as long as I stay away from editing (local adjustment brush and such). If I render standard previews prior to image processing, LR3 performs OK when working on 12MP files (I use a Canon 5D).
Thanks for your input!
