@planner I don't quite understand what you mean, so I'm just going to state what I know. I'm currently running my site on a 512 droplet. It runs fine and MongoDB is far from the largest memory consumer, taking up only 34.9 MB. node.js takes up more RAM at 128 MB. On a new installation, Redis would take up less space (obviously, as there would be nothing to store), however Redis will quickly catchup and even pass MongoDB in RAM usage rather quickly. Anyways, now that the facts are out of the way, I have to say it runs fine. Other than taking a little long to load right after a restart, it runs rather speedily.

Hello, I would love it if we could add permissions to groups. Currently, all we can do is make someone an admin or leave them as a normal user. I would love to allow "moderator" access to some people, but not full admin.

Would love a CDN plugin. This would be great for forums that aren't just accessed in one location.
Edit: I'm always the one with the uncreative and practical ideas. (Not that the other plugin ideas are impractical, it's that they're creative.)

I'm also in love with We Love Icon Fonts. Probably going to use two of the ones there for my forum's theme.

Hey guys, I plan to write a New Relic plugin within the next month. Coming from a Ruby background and not knowing the plugin API for this well enough, it should take me much longer than it would take a normal person. (The whole thing will be available on GitHub from start to finish, so you're more than welcome to pop in and help out). Oh, sorry, not used to being specific. New Relic is a service that monitors your web applications and offers helpful insights into what is going on, such as RAM, CPU, and other usages. It helps you track down issues if they're happening, and helps you make smarter decisions when scaling your web application. More information is available on the website: http://newrelic.com/application-monitoring. This plugin just makes it easier to configure the application monitoring of New Relic to monitor NodeBB. It will add the New Relic require('newrelic'); code to the start of the application and add an admin panel to configure it.

EDIT SUMMARY: Added more details here so people can understand it better without having to read to far down in the thread.
