I’m doing that (similar scale and same language) with a base model M4 mini. Works great. Anything more is overkill imo.

Thanks! Yeah, guess it's mostly nitpicky choice between M4 Pro and M3 Ultra, and both would work fine ultimately.

    I mean, I think the non-Pro base model M4 would be just fine for a CI box. Unless you are compiling something the whole of Chromium all day every day.

      Meh, if I'm buying new hardware, (and I'm not that price sensitive,) I'd rather go with the best CPU the model has available when I get it. And no, just a whole bunch of Rust projects, so no compiling of Chromiums, just compilation of other Rust browsers.
