Caching and Electron are two vastly different things.
What they're saying is that because of this caching, unused RAM is essentially just not a thing. Any process using lots of RAM will slow down everything else on your PC.
I was mainly just making a playful remark about electron being stinky
It's still not the same. The caches can be quickly evicted, but the RAM hoarded by a shitty app cannot be reclaimed without killing the app.
Edit: downvotes, no replies. Y'all just salty that I'm right?
ok?
