System Requirements

For the Dawn phase, a server must have a minimum of:

16GB of RAM, preferably 32 GB, 250GB of storage, preferably via SSD, 50MBps symmetric bandwidth, ie 50 download, 50 upload For Intel/AMD, the baseline processor is a Skylake processor @ 3.4GHz with 12 dedicated cores. For ARM, the M1 line of Apple is a good reference, but this has to be a dedicated machine.

With Dusk, these minimum requirements will reduce significantly.
