Weston Pace commented on ARROW-14039:
-------------------------------------
How much merit is there in identifying narrow build requirements? Even 1GB for
a release build seems rather onerous to maintain and 4GB for both is probably
simpler. The test effort would be complicated because, as you pointed out
earlier, there are many factors that could affect build requirements. We may
get away with 1GB of RAM on CentOS8 and end up needing 2GB on some other
distribution or OS. If someone needs to run in a limited-RAM environment it
would make more sense I think to compile on a capable build machine and
distribute the binaries.

> Would be helpful to add typical memory required for installation. A single
> core is sufficient for processing power, monitoring with SAR indicates that
> about 3 Gb of RAM are needed for debug build and 1Gb of RAM for release build.
