(Curious) why? VScode, Chrome, and a terminal running a local server usually will do fine with 16gb or less. Are you testing with or querying massive data sets locally or something?

Chrome can fill all your ram, just add more tabs (I'm usually at 100-200+ unfortunately).

With Firefox and auto tab suspend (addon), it's manageable.
