[slurm-users] Recommended amount of memory for the database server

[Paul Edmon]

It should generally be as much as you need to hold the full database in 
memory.  That said if you are storing Job Envs and Scripts that will be 
a lot of data, even with the deduping they are doing.  We've generally 
done about 90 GB buffer size here with out much of any issue even though 
our database is bigger than that.
