**This is the documentation for etcd2 releases. Read [etcd3 doc][v3-docs] for etcd3 releases.**
[v3-docs]: ../../docs.md#documentation
## Physical machine
GCE n1-standard-2 machine type
- 1x dedicated local SSD mounted under /var/lib/etcd
- 1x dedicated slow disk for the OS
- 7.5 GB memory
- 2x CPUs
## etcd
```
etcd Version: 2.2.0-rc.0+git
Git SHA: 103cb5c
Go Version: go1.5
Go OS/Arch: linux/amd64
```
## Testing
Start 3-member etcd cluster, each of which uses 2 cores.
The length of key name is always 64 bytes, which is a reasonable length of average key bytes.
## Memory Maximal Usage
- etcd may use maximal memory if one follower is dead and the leader keeps sending snapshots.
- `max RSS` is the maximal memory usage recorded in 3 runs.
| value bytes | key number | data size(MB) | max RSS(MB) | max RSS/data rate on leader |
|-------------|-------------|---------------|-------------|-----------------------------|
| 128 | 50000 | 6 | 433 | 72x |
| 128 | 100000 | 12 | 659 | 54x |
| 128 | 200000 | 24 | 1466 | 61x |
| 1024 | 50000 | 48 | 1253 | 26x |
| 1024 | 100000 | 96 | 2344 | 24x |
| 1024 | 200000 | 192 | 4361 | 22x |
## Data Size Threshold
- When etcd reaches data size threshold, it may trigger leader election easily and drop part of proposals.
- At most cases, etcd cluster should work smoothly if it doesn't hit the threshold. If it doesn't work well due to insufficient resources, you need to decrease its data size.
| value bytes | key number limitation | suggested data size threshold(MB) | consumed RSS(MB) |
