Hi y’all. I’ve got an Intel Nuc 10 here. I want to run a few apps on it, like BitWarden, PiHole, NextCloud, Wireguard, and maybe more, just for my own use, inside my home.
Is there a way to guage whether the hardware is up to the task in advance? Like, if love to be able to plan this by saying, “this container will use x MB of ram and 5% of the cpu” and so on?
I want to run everything on this one PC since that’s all I have right now.
EDITED TO ADD: T****hank you all! Great info. :thumbsup
To add to this with another example: my server runs
- jellyfin
- Nextcloud
- gitea
- Monica (a CRM, look it up on awesome-selfhosted)
- vaulwarden (rust implementation of Bitwarden)
- code-server
- qBitTorrent-nox
- authelia (2FA)
- pihole
- smbd
- sshd
- Caddy
In total, I’m using about 1.5GB out of 6GB of RAM (with another 1GB out of 16GB of swap being used), and the idle CPU usage is only 1%-ish (i5-3470 with the BIOS-settings set to power saving).
Even on very old and low-powered hardware, you can still run a lot of services without any problems.
