Hi, I attempted to install Discourse on a digital ocean droplet with 1gb of RAM, the installer stated I should ideally be using 2gb of RAM, it mentionned swap files and that I could potentially run into problems with future upgrades. Therefore is it safe to start with 1GB and if required upgrade t…

You can run on the 1GB of ram to start with however I believe you would need a 2GB swap file to go with it in order to allow it to peak when doing resource intensive stuff such as upgrades etc. If you have the 1GB Ram + 2GB Swap it should keep you going for a while thats for sure.

I have this warning when I start the Droplet: WARNING: Discourse requires at least 2GB of swap when running with 2GB of RAM or less. This system does not appear to have sufficient swap space. But the DigitalOce…
