Sizing recommendations for development environments

Particular memory requirements may apply when considering sizing configurations for development environments.

Script Editor example

In the Script Editor, script execution is handled via persistent user-level processes rather than individual script runs. These user-level processes remain in memory even when idle, increasing the baseline memory load, especially with multiple concurrent users.

Neptune advises the following sizing recommendations for development environments:

  • Allocate 1 GB of memory per active developer using the Script Editor

  • Ensure suitable memory allocation in general as limited memory resources can lead to repeated crashes of background processes, resulting in reduced system performance during development

  • Take into account sufficient memory headroom, especially in concurrent multi-user setups when considering sizing configurations
