… setup The capacity planning doc was explicitly marked as out of date for blocks storage. This updates the rules of thumb with measured numbers from a new local capacity test that runs Cortex in microservices mode (separate distributor, ingester, querier, store-gateway containers). Key changes to capacity-planning.md: - Remove "likely out of date" warning - Update ingester memory estimate from 15GB to 4-8GB per million series - Replace chunks storage numbers with blocks storage equivalents - Add ingester disk and object storage sizing guidance - Add cross-references to blocks-storage/production-tips.md New development/capacity-test/ setup: - Microservices mode with memberlist ring discovery (no Consul needed) - 25 tenants for ~120K series to reduce fixed-overhead skew - Script queries Prometheus for ingester-only RSS/heap/CPU metrics - Prints per-million-series capacity estimates with caveats Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Charlie Le <charlie_le@apple.com>
