A lot of Mac's come preinstalled with just 2 or 4GB of RAM which may not be enough for many. So having more RAM means your Mac can juggle more apps at once without having to slow down, making opening and jumping between apps much faster - which in turn makes your Mac feel a whole lot faster. Upgrading your RAM will not necessarily make your apps run faster, but what it does is increase the capacity for having apps open and switching between them.

It even boots up faster but I haven't used heavy applications yet. Just letting people know that I've successfully upgraded the RAM on my mid 2012 MacBook Pro - from 8Gb (2 of 4 Gb Hynix sticks fitted ex the factory) to 16Gb (2 of GSkill 8Gb sticks) of DDR3 1600 RAM.
