@kapa.ai would Airbyte work on a machine with 2 CPUs and 8 GB of RAM?

Based on the knowledge sources provided, Airbyte can work on a machine with 2 CPUs and 8 GB of RAM, but it may have some limitations. Here's what we know: 1. Airbyte officially supports running with 4 or more CPUs and at least 8GB of memory [Quickstart](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/getting-started/oss-quickstart#suggested-resources). 2. There is a low-resource mode available for machines with fewer than 4 CPUs. You can use this mode by specifying the

--low-resource-mode

flag when installing Airbyte [Quickstart](https://docs.airbyte.com/using-airbyte/getting-started/oss-quickstart#part-2-run-airbyte). 3. Some users have reported issues when running Airbyte on machines with 2 CPUs and less than 8GB of RAM. For example, one user mentioned that on a t2.medium instance (2 CPUs, 4GB RAM), Airbyte would freeze the entire OS [Forum Post](https://discuss.airbyte.io/t/3715). 4. Another user reported success running Airbyte on a machine with 2 CPUs and 8GB of RAM, but they had to use the

--low-resource-mode

flag [Github Issue](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/issues/30814). Given this information, you should be able to run Airbyte on a machine with 2 CPUs and 8 GB of RAM using the low-resource mode. However, keep in mind that you may experience performance limitations, especially when dealing with large data volumes or complex synchronization tasks. For optimal performance and stability, it's recommended to use a machine with at least 4 CPUs and 8GB of RAM. If you decide to run Airbyte on your 2 CPU, 8 GB RAM machine, make sure to use the following command when installing:

abctl local install --low-resource-mode

This will enable the low-resource mode, which is designed for machines with fewer resources.
