People have in the past had problems with memory consumption when using data folders and because TiddlyServer is intended to load data folders as faithfully as possible, Jed created Bob, which does things a little different but still works with almost all data folders. However the latest raspberry pi should have enough memory to be able to handle TiddlyServer quite easily. I’m assuming one would get the 4 GB version if you’re going to use it for a server anyway. So I’m guessing this isn’t as big of a problem as it used to be.
Single file wikis on the other hand shouldn’t take much memory. The TiddlyServer documentation says how to enable back ups for single file wikis. And the WebDAV saver works as expected, unlike Apache.
