The actual bandwidth necessary varies significantly based on the current transaction volume in the network. Server behavior (such as backfilling [ledger history](../../concepts/networks-and-servers/ledger-history.md)) also affects network use. During exceptionally high periods of transaction volume, some operators have reported that their servers have completely saturated a 100 megabit/s network link, so a gigabit network interface is required for reliable performance. diff --git a/docs/infrastructure/installation/system-requirements.md b/docs/infrastructure/installation/system-requirements.md index aca74ebcf4..b3a78c0d5d 100644 --- a/docs/infrastructure/installation/system-requirements.md +++ b/docs/infrastructure/installation/system-requirements.md @@ -13,7 +13,7 @@ labels: For reliable performance in production environments, it is recommended to run an XRP Ledger (`rippled`) server on bare metal with the following characteristics or better: - Operating System: Ubuntu (LTS), Red Hat Enterprise Linux (latest release), or a compatible Linux distribution. -- CPU: Intel Xeon 3+ GHz processor with 8+ cores and hyperthreading enabled. +- CPU: 3+ GHz 64-bit x86_64 processor with 8+ cores. - Disk: SSD / NVMe (10,000 IOPS sustained - not burst or peak - or better).
