Understanding Repl Resource Utilization

·2022.02.01 05:00

Key point

Replit has introduced a new monitoring component to help users easily grasp resource utilization such as CPU and RAM.

Details

Replit has introduced a new resource monitoring component within the file tree so that users can understand why their Repl is running slowly or malfunctioning. This allows users to transparently check the utilization of key resources such as CPU, RAM, and storage.

For CPU, Replit provides vCPUs (virtual CPUs) for security and cost-efficiency. A user's program runs inside a Linux container, and CPU utilization is calculated by dividing the CPU time executed during a specific interval by the actual elapsed time (Wall time) and the number of available cores.

The CPU allocation by plan is as follows:

  • Free plan: 0.5 vCPU
  • Hacker plan: 2 vCPUs
  • Boosted Repl: 4 vCPUs

RAM (Random Access Memory) is used to store all the values a program needs to access while running. Data such as the currently running program or website data is stored in memory, allowing real-time access.
