- **MinIO creates erasure-coding sets of _2_ to _16_ drives per set.  The number of drives you provide in total must be a multiple of one of those numbers.**
- **MinIO chooses the largest EC set size which divides into the total number of drives or total number of nodes given - making sure to keep the uniform distribution i.e each node participates equal number of drives per set**.

And multiple processes normally **don't share any memory**. This means that each running process has its own things, variables, and memory. And if you are consuming a large amount of memory in your code, **each process** will consume an equivalent amount of memory.
