If not, then it's not doing what you intended during that period.

The price of 100$ for 16GB seems high; do you think there might be cheaper options nearby? On Amazon I noticed 2x8GB models are about $50.

The issue is determining which program is consuming the most memory on the laptop, even though adding more RAM won't significantly improve performance.

It seems like you're questioning whether spending $100 for an additional 8 gigabytes of RAM is worth it. Your decision really depends on your current workload and whether the extra memory will make a noticeable difference.

Sadly I have one slot only...so 8GB would go out and a 16GB block in!

Usually I don’t reach the maximum—mostly because I have too many browser windows that aren’t necessary.

The response is quite straightforward—it doesn’t make any logical sense to proceed with this upgrade.
