The CAS speed of memory start to matter once you get above 64gb of ram.
A system might actually slow down the higher you go if you have slow memory.

Oh, so maybe that’s why Linus couldn’t open more than a few thousand tabs in Chrome. He used a server board and 2 TB or RAM, but the system got ridiculously slow long before he could utilize all of it. The whole system was specifically designed to sacrifice speed for capacity, so I guess that was a mistake. There could have also been software related issues with the setup. who knows. Maybe Windows or Chrome just can’t handle absurd tab counts gracefully.

I have about 100 open tabs but its all heavy tabs. Figma, miro, teams, slack, asana, jira, slides, power point, and tons of other heavy web apps.
