It also describes various Dgraph characteristics and behavior, such as memory consumption, Dgraph cache, the index merge policy, and managing the Dgraph core dump files.

If the memory limit is changed, this overrides the default memory consumption setting in the Dgraph that is set to 80% of the machine's available RAM.

A balanced index merge policy is used by default, and, in the majority of deployments, you do not need to change it.

It is recommended to use the ulimit -c unlimited setting for the Dgraph core dump files. Non-limited core files contain all Dgraph data that is resident in memory (RSS of the Dgraph process).
