Re: Memory Requirements

[Bertalan Fodor]

I think 256MB is enough for LilyPond and 256MB is enough for Tomcat (if you use 
that for the webapp part). However I don't really know LilyPond's memory needs 
but that can be fine-tuned with Guile GC settings (you can find the environment 
variable for this in the manual).
