We are a company that only does development in C++ and everyone has a desktop workstation. Laptops are simply too slow unless absolutely huge and besides my minimum requirement in a workstation nowadays is 64GB of ram with 128GB preferred. Hard to find a laptop that can support that much.

Honest question, why no build farm?

We have a build farm. This is just for running the editor.

Why does it need that much?

Because the data it loads is about 40GB in size? If I then want to actually run locally built client, then it very easily hits 128GB. Games development :P

My MacBook has 64, don’t think 128 is an option.
