Hello,
I do commercial web development using Java, Liferay, Play framework, JavaScript , MySQL, Apache.
Now I am buying a new laptop and portability is rather important for me because I commute daily. I was thinking about powerful ultra book but my company wants to buy me a powerhouse that will be heavy to carry around and bad battery life.
Could someone tell me will there be any performance difference in my web development tasks if I do it on one of the below laptops:
Ultrabook:
Lenovo T440s 14" i5-4210U1,7 GHz 12 Gt 256 Gt SSD, HD 4400
Powerhouse:
HP Omen 15,6' i7-4710HQ 2,5 GHz, 16 Gt, 256 Gt SSD, GTX 860M
The biggest difference between these 2 is processor. For web development I do not need to do lengthy compilation and majority of the time I write code and debug though there is always MySQL and HTTP server running in parallel. For burst tasks like opening many Chrome windows 1.7 Ghz should use Turbo boost that should open pages as fast as a power house.
I would appreciate your opinion and hands on experience if there will be any performance difference while developing web app on these laptops?
