The VPS we just bought came with 3G RAM + 1G partition swap - should I also set a swap file, or should this be enough? [image]

That’s enough for a small Discourse instance.

I mean, not in terms of whether it will run fast etc, but in terms of whether it will/will not generate any errors like e.g. not being able to allocate extra memory etc. Does my question make sense? Also, will adding a file swap with an even lower priority help? Just to be sure.

I cannot imagine running Discourse on less than 8gb of ram. [圖片] Falco: That’s enough for a small Discourse instance. Discourse team member saying it is fine, I’m sure if it is fine. Good luck.

Discourse-setup will flag any memory issues.

This does not answer my question either. Maybe I formulated my question in a bad way?

I have a relatively quiet forum on a Digital Ocean 2GB memory/50GB disk droplet and it works fine. At the time the Discourse installation guide was recommending 1GB minimum but I upgraded at some point. If you provide more information about how big/busy your forum is I’m sure you’ll get a more det…

[圖片] Jonathan5: I think the Discourse installer automatically sets up a swap file (I didn’t do anything manually) - so that answers part of your question, I think. I think it creates a 2GB one at install if it detects you don’t have one already. Edit: I think this is more accurate: [圖片] C…

The official minimum supported is 1G RAM + 2G swap - and that is enough, if you have a pretty small forum. Although, every update gets just a little bigger so I expect there will come a time when it’s not enough. For having the forum work correctly and not crash, the sum total of RAM and swap is t…
