"128MB default with up to 3008MB max. You can submit a support ticket to get 10GB RAM, but I was too lazy to argue with AWS support."

Was this written before wide availability of 10g memory lambdas?

Surprisingly, 3GB is a real practical RAM limit for aws lambdas in 2025: you can only have more than that if you submit a support ticket. But it's not really mentioned anywhere in the docs.

		https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/gettingstarted-... The default Lambda quota for all accounts is 10240 MB. I've never seen it below that (in recent memory, at least), even on fresh accounts not connected to a big org. I know I routinely use 10gb of RAM for my account that's never talked to support for the related CPU allocation.
