Missing explicit system requirements for component testing in CI

[MikeMcC399]

Description

Situation

• Cypress documentation System requirements specifies:
  • CPU minimum 2 CPUs, plus additional CPUs for app servers
  • Memory 4GB minimum, 8GB+ for longer test runs

• There is no specific mention of component testing
• Should component testing be considered as an additional server i.e. 3 CPUs minimum, since it fires up a server internally to run component testing against?

GitHub Actions

Standard GitHub-hosted runners for public repositories show the following standard dimensioning:

OS	CPU	RAM	Architecture
Linux	4	16 GB	x64
Windows	4	16 GB	x64
macOS	4	16 GB	x64
macOS	3	7 GB	arm64

Linux and Windows runner images are dimensioned with 4 CPU and 16 MB, macOS runners have 3 - 4 CPUs and 7 - 14GB

CircleCI

CircleCI Docker execution environment shows a wider range

Class	vCPUs	RAM
small	1	2GB
medium	2	4GB
medium+	3	6GB
large	4	8GB
xlarge	8	16GB
2xlarge	16	32GB
2xlarge+	20	40GB
