How Much RAM Does a Society: Sunlit Valley Server Need?
Society: Sunlit Valley is a cozy farming and village-life pack on Forge 1.20.1 built around Farmer's Delight cooking, Patchouli recipe books, and custom quests, with no combat overhaul or tech automation grind — see the Society: Sunlit Valley pack page for the full mod list. Here's how much RAM to give it depending on your group size. Finnish players: Minecraft-palvelin hosting is our native-language page. German players: Minecraft-Server mieten covers the same hosting auf Deutsch. Svenska spelare: Hyra Minecraft-server täcker samma hosting på svenska.
3 GB
Bare minimum for a solo player or a tiny two-person homestead. Workable since Society: Sunlit Valley has no tech automation or combat overhaul to push memory use up, but leaves little headroom.
4 GB
The best starting point for most servers. This matches the pack's own recommended RAM floor and comfortably covers Farmer's Delight, Patchouli recipe books, and quest data for a small group.
6 GB
Safer for a mid-size active group — a handful of players farming, cooking, and building homesteads simultaneously without tick lag as the world grows.
8 GB
Recommended for 10+ players or a long-running world with a large explored area, many animal pens, and an expanding quest/recipe history.
