What could you do with 6GB of RAM?

GunterGunter Member
in General

Seeing as everyone keeps purchasing VPSDime plans but without a proper use for them, how exactly could you capitalize on 6GB of RAM? Going outside the realm of Starbound and Minecraft of course.

    One thing that comes to mind, is a full remote desktop with a memory-hungry desktop environment and a browser such as Chrome, also with other apps like mail client, chat/IM or even a photo editor or office suite. But personally I wouldn't do any of that on OpenVZ due to privacy concerns.

    Wouldn't you use the offloaded mySQL that is provided for that though?

    Public SSH instance using Gateone........ and I don't think that 6gb is even enough for that for multiuser usage

    Like VPS's in a VPS? Oh no sir, not in OpenVZ...

    @eddynetweb said:
