Hey Mark, As I've said to two of the other Basho guys (privately), I'm running Riak 1.4 on 3 512MB Xen VPS.
I've since come to the conclusion that Riak is not a good solution for me in the short term, it requires a great deal more RAM than I am prepared to give it. Notably, the max_open_files default and minimum value for a vnode is 30, which means that a vnode will *always *require 120MB of RAM *minimum. * With a static ring size, you need to have a cluster ready to handle your maximum memory load when you first create it. This makes Riak rather impractical for me (I don't have the hardware to throw at a Riak cluster right now but I'd like something that can scale) and has led to me switching to MongoDB which, although it requires a little extra configuration in the future, is working great right now. I'm really missing Riak's text search though. On Sun, Aug 11, 2013 at 3:50 AM, Mark Phillips <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Lucas, > > Like Evan, I haven't had time to dig into the logs.
