Running 3 AI agents in parallel: even 32GB machines hit memory limits
PawelHuryn · x · 2026-11-15
Developer PawelHuryn shares first-hand experience with memory bottlenecks when running multiple AI coding agents: he keeps 3 active agents building at any time, plus several waiting sessions. Even after delegating some work to a 16GB Mac mini, his rented 32GB DigitalOcean Droplet keeps hitting memory limits — a data point on how resource-hungry parallel agent workflows have become.
