We actively try to make improvements so GitLab uses fewer resources, but with the scope of the application it's definitely not easy to make it super "lightweight".

You can see the hardware requirements here: https://docs.gitlab.com/ce/install/requirements.html#hardwar...

I mean, I don't use GitLab but I didn't really mean it disparagingly - for the OP's purpose, GitLab is massive overkill, and will need a lot more resources than a more targeted solution will.
