From the FAQ:
We recommend RethinkDB servers have at least 2GB of RAM
Why does it needs so much memory?
- assface 11y agoBecause it's 2015.

- antirez 11y agoMakes sense to reduce disk accesses but maybe there are fixed data structures allocated? Since otherwise they should advice a given percentage of memory compared to dataset size instead of a fixed amount.
