I don't know man...If you need 32gb then likely Air isn't for you.

Had similar thoughts but getting a pro with 32gb is like $500-$700 more.

It's adequate

There is raw hardware and power but you will likely end never get to use it full because it would heat before that. Maybe if you dont want to spend another $500 then you might need to get a laptop stand with fan

Its more about the cooling in the Air. A 32gb means usage is on heavy side which would heat the processor. But Air would not be able to sustain it for long before throttling

Thanks for putting this into perspective. Based on the comments above i think a 32gb is well suited for a macbook pro than macbook air. and 24gb would just the job fine if i decide to go with the air

I've been looking for an 13" Air with 32GB I would say this is a pretty good price. Don't listen to fanboys saying if you need 32GB you need to go with pro. The pro I believe is over a pound heavier and feels like brick. 32GB should be the minimum in any laptop in an age where most phones come with 16 GB RAM. Just a chrome with 20-30 tabs will gobble up 60% of that 32GB.
