What is it about Memory Boost that you are concerned about?
From my experience it has made the game feel extra quick with load times and Sim responsiveness and touch wood, I've not had a game crash in months since opting into the feature.
SimulationBuilds, memory boost has increased the loading times in my experience. The loading times are much longer than they were before it was forced.

Sorry to hear that. It's odd how for some players the loading times are longer and others have much faster loading times. Perhaps it is down to the hardware they have in their systems.

I have a gaming laptop with specs well above the minimum requirements. Sims 4 is the only game that lags on it. The game even lags on the gaming desktop computer the my children use. From what I read from multiple online sources, the longer loading times are specifically caused by memory boost. Basically, their forced fix did not improve my experience. The only reason why I know loading times are longer was because I specifically timed it before amd after the July update. I haven't played with the August update yet, so my will see if this update makes loading times even worse.

Okay but this still doesn't explain why it varies between players. As I said, I have experienced faster loading times from the memory boost and my PC specs are well above the system requirements as well.
This is why I said that it is odd that some players are experiencing different results.
