I mean, you can never have too much ram.

But if you don't use it in its entirety, it is kind of useless.

That's the system's job. It can cache stuff or whatever.

192GB is way to big to be used as a cache

However, you probably could run some of the huge language models

You are underestimating writebacks. You won't use that much on a normal filesystem and with ZFS you will only use that with bigger amounts of data
