gollark: It works non-laggishly on 4GB. The issue is that it crashes with errors about failing to allocate memory fairly often.
gollark: I think I set it to 4GB.
gollark: I'd probably play more if the server was busier and the pack somewhat less computationally heavy.
gollark: 8GB.
gollark: I quite like 1.7. I mean, Thaumcraft, Rotary/Reactor/ChromatiCraft, etc. are available, and most mods have some versions available on 1.7 still. The main problem with this pack for me is that I have to close Firefox or run out of RAM, due to the 300 mods.
