Currently, I have VPS with 1core2Ghz and 2Gb of RAM.
Sometimes it works well and sometimes it is awful, e.g. appwrite does not respond because of 100% CPU usage.

What is a recommended setup for Appwrite?

4core 2Ghz and 4GB of RAM will be enough at the start?

Summary

User is asking for the recommended setup for Appwrite. They mention that Dart has slower execution times compared to NodeJS. They currently have a VPS with 1 core and 2GB of RAM, but sometimes experience high CPU usage and unresponsiveness. They ask if a setup with 4 cores and 4GB of RAM would be sufficient. Unfortunately, there is no explicit solution provided in the support thread. The user is seeking recommendations for the recommended setup for Appwrite.

From the docs:

System requirements -

Appwrite is designed to run well on both small and large deployments.

The minimum requirements to run Appwrite are as little as 1 CPU core and 2GB of RAM, and an operating system that supports Docker.

Yeah, but, I am asking about the recommended setup. Not a minimum, because, for now, I can say that that minimum is not enough during building a cloud dart function.

4Core, 4Gigs should be indeed a good start.

I've seen performance bump with dart, takes time to build functions, for one. You could try spinning up a NodeJS function.

My findings -
Dart => 20/25 seconds avg.
NodeJS => 5 seconds avg.

It's something expected since in dart you're compiling the code

but executions/cold starts are faster with dart 😉
