How much RAM do people recommend putting into a PowerBook which will
be used to run MCL? I want responses that are a bit more informative
than "as much as possible". For example, responses like
- I had 4mb, but it really wasn't enough. MCL thrashed to death.
- 6mb was comfortable, but for large programs tended to GC a lot.
- I use 10mb and have never had any problems.
will be useful.
Also, are there any special considerations I should take into account
when selecting a PowerBook?
