Tool Name: hoiscript
Quota increase requested: +10GiBRAM
Reason:
I am running automated upload tasks to Commons with this tool account. It downloads images and combines them into a PDF with the Python package img2pdf. Sometimes, there are too many images to process, resulting in the task being killed due to exhausting memory.
Typically, such a set of images belongs to a single book volume. So they have to be packed into a single PDF at once. <del>Considering the maximum file size limit of Commons is 4GiB, the reasonable working set memory requirements would be 4GiB (images to be processed) + 4GiB (generated PDF in memory) + some necessary redundancy (assuming 2GiB).</del>
There are some bigger PDFs in my other upload tasks. Some of them exceed 6GiB[1]. The upload script has to split them and upload them as multiple files, which requires more memory.
I would like to request to increase the memory limit per container and quota per account to <del>10GiB</del> 16GiB.
