I have migrated my witness node to a server with 32gb RAM and 8 cores CPU for faster replaying, the estimated size of the Steem Blockchain has also increased significantly (over 75Gb) so I have decided to get a 500 gb SD server.
The current use of RAM of a Steem node running on Low Memory Mode is 25gb, the good thing is that this new supplier allows me to add more RAM as I need it, so I will be adding 32gb more RAM soon to have a total of 64gb.
If you wish to read the projects I support and what I do as a witness, you can read my witness page here
Special thanks to @someguy123 for providing the “Steem in a box” container and “Steemfeed-js” price feed, two great tools I recommend for witnesses.
Thanks you for reading and feel free to reach me on steemit or steemit.chat

After all this time, I have added you on my very short list of witnesses, thanks for answering my questions over the time. I wanted to ask you also, how much of the CPU is used for witnessing?

When you are replaying the blockchain, that is when you start your node, you use 100%, but after only 5% maybe.

Okay so the computer that is running the node should have a good CPU and plenty of ram. This is everything or does it need to have a good internet connection with a lot of bandwidth or maybe an SSD?
I was thinking that maybe at the end of the year I will try to see if I can become a witness and I wanted to know what do I need for this, even though I am not very sure I will be able to do it :D
