From top, it shown that IBGA requires 12gb of virtual memory. Is it normal or is it be due to my misconfiguration of the docker?

Thanks!

Virtual memory is probably not the best indicator of memory usage. A better one would be resident memory or "resident set size". This serverfault question explains a bit about what virtual memory is.

Although I'm pretty sure IBGA is as slim as possible. No parts in IBGA runs on Java. IB Gateway, however, is a heavy Java program.

Thanks for the explanation. 👍
