[tahoe-dev] Client/helper RAM usage

[Zooko O'Whielacronx]

Those graphs are linked from and described on this page:

http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/wiki/Performance

I don't think those graphs are reliable, though, as described in #227.
 However, I do think that those graphs, which are measuring vmsize,
should show an upper bound on the number that you care about, so since
the vmsize on that 32-bit machine is shown as being around 40 MB on
our Performance page graphs, your virtual machine with 512 MiB should
work juuuust fine.  :-)

I used Tahoe-LAFS on Zandr's 266 MHz ARM NAS box yesterday.  It has
128 MiB of RAM.  It seemed to work okay, but I had to stop
experimenting with it since both my ISP and Zandr's router seem to be
flaky at the moment (so I could no longer open TCP connections to that
box).
