Question about steemd mining memory requirements?

in #steem-help • 8 years ago (edited)

Why is steemd consumes so much RAM when running?

Is there a way to reduce the amount of RAM consumed by the process?
It also increases over time.
When I started mining about 40 days ago I could get away why 4GB of RAM 2GB of swap.
Nowadays it needs about 9-10GB of system RAM.
What will happen in two months from now will we need 12-15GB to mine?

    looks like the last version Steem 0.14.0 rc1 is even worse... high memory usage :(
