Hi Sean,

I'm not really sure what you mean by the term 'children'. Maybe you
mean process or consumer?

I expect pulp_resource_manager to use less than 1.7G of memory, but
its possible. Memory analysis can be a little bit tricky so more
details are needed about how this is being measured to be sure.

The biggest memory process within Pulp by far is mongodb. If you can,
ensure that at least 4G of RAM is available on that machine that you
are running mongodb on.

I looked into the docs and we don't talk much about the memory
requirements. Feel free to file a bug on that if you want. Roughly I
expect the following amounts of RAM to be available per process:

pulp_celerybeat, 256MB - 512MB
pulp_resource_manager, 256MB - 512MB
pulp_workers. This process spawns N workers. Each worker could use
256MB - 2GB depending on what its doing.
httpd, 1GB
mongodb, 4GB
qpidd/rabbitMQ, ???

Note all the pulp_*, processes have a parent and child process, for
the numbers above I consider each parent/child together. I usually
show the inheritance using `sudo ps -awfux`.

I'm interested to see what others think about these numbers too.
