"to nearly 12 GB"

and yet, my core rpi node uses less than 2GB of RAM. i can't take this position seriously - knots claims to be the defender of rpi nodes, but from what i have seen, *only knots* uses 12GB of RAM. i'm sure there's some optimizations going on in core, but at the end of the day it's an irrelevant detail.

knots is the problem, not the solution

That's one of the most clueless takes I've heard yet.

Yes the UTXO has ballooned out, for all clients Core and Knots both.

How is it irrelevant??

core demonstrates that a simple counting of the UTXO set size isn't relevant to whether you can run on an rpi. if you are running knots on limited hardware and it's unable to sync, running core is a solution
