But the protocol requires that the light nodes downloads ALL the block headers (so that it can eventually ask other peers in the network to provide the information with a given hash). | |

The AWS instance where I am trying to run the light node has got only 512 MB Ram. Does it require more memory? I thought this was enough for a light client. | |
