<p>Overkill - not really. The calculations show I need at
least 16G (its currently using ~11G). I was using an
odroid-n2 with 4G ram - slowed to a crawl when it hit
swap and eventually crashed. I moved the master to a
much more powerful intel server with 32mb and it has
crashed once but I was hammering it (graphs show it ran
out of ram - need to check if the OOM is disabled on
that one). Cheats like moving swap and the mfs
directories to a usb3 connected SSD helped (4-5 times
faster than an SD card), but eventually fell short.<br>
</p>
<p>I have 10 disks (~26Tb) spread across 5, soon to be 6
low power odroids and an intel atom. The problem came
when I put two copies of 20+ years email (millions of
smallish files) on it and then reconfigured the mail
server to use one copy. Yes, I know ...self inflicted!
But it did work for a few days! :)<br>
</p>
<p>There are some guide calculations on the moosefs
website that match what I am seeing for usage and
support why I want at least 32G. There are still some
shortcuts I could use (go back to putting the small
files in a qemu virtual disk) but that had its own
issues. I see some emails on the moosefs website about
masters with hundreds of G ram!<br>

<p>Yes, but that's the only one I have found short of going for a
full system - I was hoping someone could point out something I
have missed.<br>
