    Yeah, that would be too hard.

    I have 64GB RAM rn and there are only a select few cases in which I use more than 16GB.

    Most of the time, it is ~10GB.
    I have given 8GB to a VM and even that tends to be used only ~2GB (of course not Windows).

      I’m using Qubes right now and at 21G used.

      It goes up a lot if you use vaults for passwords and GPG, separate qube for mail, and separate Qubes for each of your clients.

      If you’re only using 10G, you probably don’t have much compartmentalization in your setup

        Yeah, I just tend to do one thing at a time.
        Wine is in a separate installation, without mails, payments etc,
        When doing payments or other stuff expecting security, I shut down the VM. Memory sharing, copy-paste, shared folders etc. is disabled.
