Dear Ceph users,

I've a question regarding the memory recommendations for an OSD node.

The official Ceph hardware recommendations say that an OSD node should
have 1GB Ram / TB OSD [1]

The "Reference Architecture" whitpaper from Red Hat & Supermicro says
that "typically" 2GB of memory per OSD on a OSD node is used. [2]

According to the recommendation in [1] an OSD node with 24x 8TB OSD
disks is "underpowered "  when it is equipped with 128GB of RAM.
However, following the "recommendation" in [2] 128GB should be plenty
enough.

I'm wondering which of the two is good enough for a Ceph cluster with 10
nodes using EC (6+3)

Thanks for any comment
  Dietmar
