114 +**Step 6: Update wsl config file **
115 +In this step we need to add or update the WSL config file that manages the resources of the Linux subsystem. Important resources to manage are the assigned memory and number of processors. For memory we recommend to review the mempory settings for the runtime that need to run on this server and add 762 MB to the total value of the heap and non-heap of these runtimes. For processor we recommend to set the value to 2 - depending on the amount of processors available on that machine
