Memory issue

HI, I'm new to RM and now I'm facing a memory issue with it.

 

On window 10 64-bit my rapidminer uses 3GB of memory without running any process and after a process(basically as the tutorial did) it can't clean up the memory even I used "free memory" operator.

 

Thanks 

Patrick

    hello @PatrickHou - welcome to the community. Yes that sounds about right. My RapidMiner Studio install typically uses around 3GB of memory at rest as well.

     

    We don't recommend using RapidMiner with a machine less than 4GB, and even 8GB can be quite limiting. It's a pretty sophisticated piece of software that does its work in RAM. See this page for machine specifications. Most data scientists who use RapidMiner have machines with quite a bit of RAM. Mine is 64GB. :)
