It's only a change on paper, in reality it was unrealistically low for a long time

Is that ever since 1.8 made the whole game engine vastly less efficient? The game used to run with 256MB.

  • There's modpacks, e.g. fabulously optimized. It makes mc playable but 256MiB basically gets you to the Java runtime nowadays.

    These are system requirements - not how much the game actually uses.

  • Less efficient but faster, which is a fun combination. At least they seem to have improved FPS.

    • That's probably because you got a new graphics card some time in the last 10 years.
