Heist Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Does anyone run their bots off a raspberry pi 3b+? If so, how many can you run at once? I assume the bots would be run without graphics?
Muffins Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Well considering the 3b+ has 1GB of ram.... probably 1 bot
JeppePort Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 I did actually try this and I could only get one bot running on the 1g ram on a 2b+

You could probably run 2 if you used a really efficient Linux operating system. I used Ubuntu LXDE and a single client could run under 500MB of RAM on most scripts if not better. If you can get it this low, you could try getting a few PI Zero's and running one client off each as they are only $5-6 a piece.

I'll look more into that, thanks
