MEMORY

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

In 2021, Adobe, together with Chrome engineering, brought a version of Photoshop to the web. However, the files edited in Photoshop often require more memory than a user has available on their device, due to the many features offered by the software, the types of digital design and editing it is used for, and the capabilities of user devices. This article looks at how Adobe Photoshop engineering solved working with files larger than can fit into memory and how Photoshop works with files larger than the 32-bit address space of wasm32.
