The Memory Report is helpful in quickly classifying machines based on the amount of memory. You can get an overall view to analyze and determine if the amount of memory is a factor for backup jobs. You may want to make sure that the nodes in your high priority tiers have the most memory.
For example, if this report shows that a particular node has a slow throughput value, you can quickly determine the amount of memory the node has and look for patterns in behavior among the nodes with less memory or among the nodes with the most memory. You can also use the fastest throughput values as reference points to analyze how much memory is required to perform well. You can compare the slower nodes to the faster nodes to determine if you actually have a problem with memory or if both sets of values are similar, maybe the slower nodes are not performing poorly due to lack of memory.
Always look for patterns in behavior to isolate potential problem with memory and determine if nodes with the same amount of memory are failing frequently. It is important to analyze the results from all fields of this report when attempting to determine problem nodes.
