Memory limitations #27

Closed sshivaji closed 7 years ago

sshivaji commented 7 years ago

I deployed this on a cloud machine with limited RAM, just 2GB. I was not able to run chess_db on a large database (2M games) because of the RAM requirements. I had to transfer the chess_db polyglot book I created from my desktop to the cloud machine.

Is it worthwhile to consider an option such as --low-ram and support not using mmap and write the file to polyglot in chunks? Totally fine if this is seen as too much pain.. :)

Will close this issue as it's just a nice to have
