I'm 99.999% sure that you are talking about the amount of flash in those devices, not RAM. I think I've seen reports of 8GB phones, but I don't think any ship, yet. Most phones have between 2GB and 4GB RAM these days, some 1GB. And it's the 1GB ones where I worry that we might run out of memory.

But on an S6 Edge should have 3GB and definitely not have problems with this.

I will look into this. Yet another show stopper :-(
Undo really has to work or people will be unhappy.
