I had a 16GB M1 MBP for about 9 months and I was very happy with it, but once I started using Docker, I decided I needed more RAM. Bought a 64GB one and.. wow.. it's the same CPU but the machine feels so much snappier (and it's not a clean install). macOS really seems to like having all that RAM about even if it claims to not be leaning on it heavily.

Perhaps one day when Apple prices the RAM upgrades reasonably..
