How to squeeze out every last drop of your precious RAM on your Mac - Use iPhone mirroring
I was recently trying to load a larger model on my Mac and was going through the drill of checking RAM usage, closing apps like Telegram, Messages, Spark(email), etc that were using too much RAM and I saw iPhone Mirroring in the list was using only about 58MB. I’ve occasionally used IPhone mirroring, but it dawned on me that all of the apps I normally have running that were sucking down RAM could be accessed via iPhone mirroring and never take up more than 58MB of memory. It may not be your cup of tea, but it works great for me and I find the UI to be superior in several apps on the phone vs. desktop. I’m writing this post in iPhone mirroring in the Reddit app. Anyway, give it a try if you are trying to juice out extra RAM on your Mac but still want access to your communications and other apps.
