It’s an entirely different architecture, so every program needs less RAM (with exceptions like I mentioned above). That’s why they’re using shared RAM; because they can pull it off (mostly).
ARM is pretty efficient, that’s true. But an 8 gig video will always be an 8 gig video. No amount of processing and compression and swap tricks will make it occupy any less space without a massive hit to performance that an x86-64 arch with 16+GB of ram won’t have to endure.
Uhh what? That’s not how RAM works, you don’t load an entire 8GB video you’re playing into RAM.
no
Lol
