RE: Mining STEEM on AWS (Free Tier)

in #steemhelp8 years ago

No problem. The AWS t2.micro is a low memory instance. In order to compile the software from source, we require virtual memory from the storage partition. This is what the swap commands are doing. Once you finish compiling the source files, you can turn off the swap file by running the following two commands:

sudo swapoff /swapfile

sudo rm /swapfile
