To ensure optimal performance, install Event Stream Processor on a server machine that meets or exceeds the minimum disk space and memory requirements.
The Event Stream Processor installer relies on temporary files it copies to your machine. Ensure you have enough disk space to accommodate these temporary files as well as the installed program files.
The following table lists approximate disk space requirements for Event Stream Processor, taking into account both the temporary files and the installed program files.
| ESP Server Only | ESP Server and Studio | |
|---|---|---|
| Linux-64 (AMD/Intel) | 500MB | 350MB |
These disk requirements do not take into account the sizes of your Event Stream Processor project-related files.
Memory requirements vary, depending on the size, number, and complexity of projects you run and on whether ESP Server and Studio are installed on the same machine or on different machines. In general, Sybase recommends that you allocate at least 1GB free memory for Event Stream Processor-related activities.
