I happened to have access to an M4 MacBook Air, so I tried out building the Swift compiler. It took ~ 1.5 hours, which is a full hour faster than my M1 Pro 🥲

@mattiem wow, sooooo I’ve been debating between a 15” MacBook Air or a 14” MacBook Pro. Looks like I’ll be OK with an Air

@RosaCtrl I’ve been toying with the idea since doing this. I’m also facing hard drive space issues which is a real problem…

I think the air is an incredible form factor. I just love the portability!

@mattiem @RosaCtrl I started a new job a while back and they gave me an M4 15” Air- it’s mostly been fine, but I notice it bogging down under load way more than my personal M2 Pro. Could be all of the corporate security crap (or that I’m pushing the GPU with 2x 4K monitors) but I’d personally be a bit cautious. Love the form factor though.
