Title: bitcoind and resource consumption Post by: shark255 on May 28, 2014, 07:12:31 AM Why bitcoind consumes too much resources (core i5, 8gb memory).
And is there any possibility to decrease it, because i have an idea to put bitcoind on VPS, but seems it'll slow down all system :( Title: Re: bitcoind and resource consumption Post by: zvs on May 29, 2014, 01:55:52 AM Why bitcoind consumes too much resources (core i5, 8gb memory). I run bitcoind with standard settings on a 2GB RAM VPS w/o any issues. 1GB should be fine with a little swap space, I'd imagine..And is there any possibility to decrease it, because i have an idea to put bitcoind on VPS, but seems it'll slow down all system :( Though on a node where I have 500+ connections, I have to restart it every week or so, else it gets up to 4GB+ in reserved memory Title: Re: bitcoind and resource consumption Post by: KaChingCoinDev on May 29, 2014, 01:04:39 PM Why bitcoind consumes too much resources (core i5, 8gb memory).

Like the guy said above, it runs fine on 2GB Ram, and a small processor. I run it on a VPS fine with those specs. |
