# Synapse's architecture is quite RAM hungry currently - we deliberately cache
|
|
# a lot of recent room data and metadata in RAM in order to speed up common
|
|
# requests. We'll improve this in future, but for now the easiest way to either
|
|
# reduce the RAM usage (at the risk of slowing things down) is to set the
|
|
# almost-undocumented SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR environment variable. Roughly
|
|
# speaking, a SYNAPSE_CACHE_FACTOR of 1.0 will max out at around 3-4GB of
|
|
# resident memory - this is what we currently run the matrix.org on. The
|
|
# default setting is currently 0.1, which is probably around a ~700MB
|
|
# footprint. You can dial it down further to 0.02 if desired, which targets
|
|
# roughly ~512MB. Conversely you can dial it up if you need performance for
|
|
# lots of users and have a box with a lot of RAM.
