[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1918761, member: 110816"] Absolutely..in my world, we compile a lot of code and in my previous company a number of engineers had pretty crappy HP machines that would take about 40 minutes to compile everything. As you can imagine they got creative about choosing WHEN to compile to avoid paying that penalty, but if you they had to compile to test some quick changes, it wasn't possible. My MBP (first in the company) would compile the same code in about 3.5 mins. And when I found that, I pushed to get upgrades for everyone, a number of folks switched to M1 based Macs and others to faster Lenovo machines and on average the build time dropped to around 5-8 mins which meant that these high priced engineers could be more productive during their work day. These sort of improvements are nothing to scoff at.. [/QUOTE]
