Both quotas are "just watermarks". Node quota is just bound for sum of
bucket quotas. And bucket quota is a bound which couchbase will try "really
hard" not to exceed. But memory allocator fragmentation is not taken into
account when couchbase decided if it has memory or if it doesn't. That's
why giving it 63 gigs of ram out of 64 is some small kind of suicide in
operation terms.
