Hi! I have a question regarding a small server with 20-25 players. Would 4 GB of RAM work well for this setup? I have around 120 scripts, custom cars, and clothes, along with a resmon of 0.80/0.90. There are also a few NPCs. The server is running on a Linux VPS (Debian 12) without a graphical interface, and I have an NVMe SSD.
I would say 8gb - 12gb would be best suited for your server. As if your playbase ever increased + in the future you may want to add more scripts or other resources like clothing or cars.

4gb will be fine with that population. The most improtant thing is dedicated resources that are not shared with someone else. Having a high clocked cpu is extremely important as far as performance is concerned. You’re better off with 4 cores at 4.2ghz than 8 cores at 2.1ghz. The nvme drive will be great as well.

Just a note for this, performance machines only really start mattering for higher pop servers.
You can run on a E3-1280-V3 fine at 200~ players (which is what we did for the longest).
