[Kea-users] Kea System Requirements

[Klaus Steden]

Our largest environment serves about ~5700 clients and is an active-passive
pair of VMs with 2 vCPUs and 8 GB of vRAM using the MySQL backend.

The load average hovers around 0.00 on most days, although it's serving
predominantly bare metals in a data center and the default lease duration
is 120H.

cheers,
Klaus
