Hello, we have installed elasticsearch v5 we have a ubuntu with 4 cores and 8 gigs of ram and we noticed that sometimes it goes quite slow what are the minimum requirements?

More or less we will have about 2 million daily calls between viewing information, adding information and updating.

We have thought of 64 gigs of ram but how many colors? How much space?

Thank you very much.
