How much RAM does my server need?

It depends on the game, how many people play at once, mods, and the size and age of the world. Our free calculators give an estimate for the most popular games:

• Minecraft
• Valheim
• Terraria
• Rust
• Palworld
• Project Zomboid
• 7 Days to Die
• ARK: Survival Ascended
• V Rising
• Enshrouded

They're estimates based on typical use, not guarantees. A world that's been played for months, or a heavy mod list, can need more.

On your own machine

Leave about 4 GB for the system (Ubuntu, Docker and the panel's agent). A 16 GB mini PC has about 12 GB for game servers. See what each mini PC runs.

If it runs out

A server that runs out of memory stutters, then crashes. Warp View tells you when a server stops unexpectedly. Give it more memory on its page, or run fewer servers on that machine at once.
