UiPath Linux Robots #3: How to Minimize WSL 2 Memory Consumption | Short Tutorial
Hello again,
UiPath Linux Robots #3: How to Minimize WSL 2 Memory Consumption | Short Tutorial
Once you've deployed your UiPath Linux Robots and worked with Docker Desktop for Windows enough times, you'll notice that there is an unnatural amount of memory/RAM consumption taken up by Vmmem.exe, a utility associated with WSL 2. Such memory consumption can slow your machine down to a crawl, especially when Docker and other programs such as UiPath Studio and Visual Studio Code are running side by side, all at the same time.
In this short video we create and configure the .wslconfig file and apply a minimal fix to WSL 2 in order to limit the amount of RAM usage by Vmmem.exe
