<p>It will depend very much on the size and content of your
projects. Vector layers are very efficient in resource usage. If
you happen to use raster layers, the software dedicates a lot of
resources to caching them, so that is where insufficient memory or
swap may become an issue.</p>
<p>If you do work with large projects, adding a 100 GB or larger SSD
purely for swap purposes is a lot cheaper than 32 GB of system RAM
and not a great deal slower. <br>

the actual limits are mostly imposed by the data and the project

<div>I am currently working with the QGIS version 2.18 Las
Palmas but I will soon switch to the latest 3.4 LTR version.</div>

<div>I have been reading through the question blog in order to
figure out which are the minimum hardware requirements for
the latest version. All previous given answers are already
outdated. More specifically, I would like to know, since I
am a laptop owner, what are the following minimum
requirements:</div>
