gollark: What about OC though?
gollark: It's weird, because my 50-mods-or-so server runs fine with as many as 2 users at once.
gollark: My server has a quad-core sandy bridge CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 1TB of nonredundant storage.
gollark: As it's on an actual physical box I have here, it can go to 32GB.
gollark: I should really buy a few more sticks of RAM but never got round to it.
