What uses the memory in V Rising

Castles are persistent, and each one carries a decay timer and a store of resources that the server keeps processing for owners who are logged off. Allow big castles or a large number of clans and the bill outgrows the headcount, and it keeps edging upwards through each wipe cycle as players spread out.

Where people get it wrong

Sizing on day one of a fresh server. Castles only ever get bigger, so what matters is the requirement late in the cycle, not at launch.

Rather not run the server yourself?

These tools are free and funded by the two hosting services we run. If you want a server that is already set up, here they are.
