💪 RAM
RAM (random access memory) is important for Minecraft servers because it allows the server to handle more players and run more complex Minecraft plugins and mods. As a general rule, you should allocate at least 1GB of RAM for every 10 players that you want to be able to have on your server simultaneously. So, if you want to be able to have 100 players on your server at the same time, you should allocate at least 10GB of RAM.
