    Can someone tell me the recommended specs for running a raceroom dedicated server?

    Is it true that it can be run adequately on an AWS EC2 instance with 1GB RAM (Free Tier for up to a year)?

    I tried, and no - some people won't be able to connect. The free tier doesn't cut it unfortunately.

    Thanks for the response, I did think it was too good to be true :)

    Hey, I just heard from someone on reddit that it should work on a micro instance. I'm going to experiment with it too -- it could make dollarracing.club servers a lot cheaper to use :)

    Update - it works fine. Just be sure to enable CPU bursting.

    AusNZ Dedi server has run in a burstable t2.micro for a year. No issues
