Please document resource requirements #13

davidmankin commented 9 years ago

I work on an all-Python project. We'd like to run something like Prana as a sidecar with our python apps, but the JVM requirement is scary because of the extra resources it might need. Could you add a resource requirements section to the documentation? If you said how much memory and CPU was needed by a typical real-world Prana installation at Netflix (or as a ratio of memory-per-concurrent-request or whatever) then we'd be able to evaluate whether Prana would work for us without having to tune a JVM just to get started. For context we want it mostly for the Ribbon/Hystrix features; we have other service discovery solutions.

Thanks!
