We primarily wanted Sandstorm for Etherpad. However, Etherpad is a node.js based, JIT-compiled application. Sandstorm's security model requires each document to be running in its own, sandboxed copy of the app, and the JIT-ness apparently precludes such applications from sharing memory. Thus, each *document* uses 60-100MB when open.
We can't support that right now, so I plan on shutting down our Sandstorm instance in two weeks. Perhaps we can run Etherpad *outside* of Sandstorm, if we still find ourselves wanting for a collaborative document solution. P.S. These facts were confirmed by a friend of mine at a Sandstorm meetup in SF yesterday. They hope to solve the memory usage with "snapshotting" at some point.
