Q: Having all app icons pinned to the dock

Does it affect performance or reduce the available memory to other programs if you pin all the application icons to your dock (just for looks)?

    I am not sure for memory , but keeping all applications in dock  reduces the battery run time , so it is wiser to keep the apps in launchpad ( you can keep finder and trash in dock ) and also reduce the size of icons .

     

    Thanks !
