Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to minimize or control RAM usage of a storage node.
Background is that I have a server running on a tiny NAS system with ARM processor, a DNS-323; Advantages are that it is very cheap (around 70 EUR for the hardware), very quiet, uses little power (about 25 W), runs Debian, and has a RAID1 setup with two Terabyte SATA disks. The device has 64 MB RAM. Tahoe-storage is the only larger active process, it runs with a virtual memory size of about 130 MB and a resident set size of between 30 % and 50 % of the physical RAM. CPU load is typically 25 - 60 %, so the machine doesn't look memory-starved. Network answer times on V2G are reported to be 290 - 430 ms, this looks okay. Now, is there some way to minimize RAM usage and make it a little bit faster?
