Hello all,

I'm wondering where I can find documentation about the resource utilization for Curator for the hard disk, CPU, and RAM. I would like to know so I can justify installing it to my team on a resource limited server. It would also be helpful to know where this information is located for the other tools elastic offers.

Thank you for your time.

Best.  
Ryan Hsu

It's a python script, so it uses very little resources in general.
