Does anyone have a working version of phantomjs 2.1.1 with ghostdriver that connects to selenium grid? I tried this one for example but it just crashes randomly when the jobs are running: https://github.com/AkeemMcLennon/docker-selenium-node-phanto... The latest 2.5.0 beta doesnt have the updated ghostdriver yet. How much ram does chrome --headless use (true headless not XvfB), because I want to run about 200 of these in parallel and keeping the ram down is important obviously. Does anyone have any suggestions? I figure by using selenium grid I can run them in docker containers and even on multiple hardware machines. Currently, I am running about 50 in parallel with Magellan https://github.com/TestArmada/magellan But its hitting some kind of system limits or sync issues because each process is started before run time rather than ready and

waiting in a pool. Any help on running 200 headless browsers via selenium grid would be greatly appreciated. I think the current selenium chrome Xvbf docker container uses like 300mb+ per instance so that would be 60gb of ram which is a fair bit.
