You made me curious.. 128GB RAM on Xubuntu! Why? Which usage would require so much memory? Found 16cores quite a lot as well. Really wondering what you do?

Not the person you're replying to, but we have lots of 64gb workstations at work for database and BI work, such a testing large queries in Apache Drill. With the right query, you can use up the 64gb quite quickly. Our servers run 384gb and have 16C/32T.
