RAM performance on Metatrader 4 & 5 on Linux

My setup consumes ~10mb per mt4 terminal on Windows machine. The setup that I have is very light: only 1 ema indicator, time bar close indicator, grid lines for large/round numbers. All of these indies are on 4 charts per terminal. The performance does not change much if I have 1 chart or 10 charts per terminal.
So I am interested to hear what is your experience with Linux.

Please share you memory usage when you run Metatrader platform. Preferably you have no indicators or some basic MAs indicator.

I am assuming you a using Wine for virtualization to mount mt4/5 on. Any other inconveniences you had experienced, please do share!

Are you are talking about running in a virtual box (wine) or dedicated Linux hardware? Just trying to clarify what you are interested in. Thanks

I want to run mt4/5 on Linux desktop configuration using Wine. It doesn't have to be Wine. It could be other emulators, like: playOnLinux, Bottles etc, it's just Wine seems most popular choice.

Forget about Wine. Yes, you can make it work. But not to a degree that it will make you happy. I'm a Linux guy and over the years my experience with Wine is mixed.
MetaTrader is not a standard Windows application. Today you can make it work on Wine. But tomorrow comes an update and suddenly you run into issues with dialogs, fonts, UI elements, whatever... Wine is good for running old Windows software, software built for Windows XP etc.

The bullet proof solution on Linux (or MacOS) is a VM. Doesn't matter which one. Yes, it will use more memory but it will be stable and rock-solid, and will support the latest Windows stuff.

I really don't have much to offer here. I run Kali, Ubuntu, and Debian on Oracle VM Virtual Box due to an interest in Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), or to open a weird file, but that's it. I usually partition 40 Gig, 16 Meg Ram, and 4 cores to it. Not sure that is going to help you one little bit since I only use a windows based VPS for MetaTrader, usually two slices.

I have tested on many distros and gotta say meta trader runs smoothly with wine. no problems at all.
currently using KDE Neon.
