When deciding to use RPIs instead of the Proxidize hardware, users must get at least 4 GB of RAM.

A device with 2GBs of RAM will leave very little memory to run Proxidize processes. When the RPI runs out of memory, it will start killing processes to free up some memory. These processes include your Proxidize dashboard, database, and many others.

The device might run okay for some time; depending on your proxy usage, then issues will still appear. A reboot will temporarily fix the problem, but you must eventually upgrade your memory to at least 4 GB.
