+## Hardware configuration
+
+High-throughput workloads place significant demands on system resources, making proper hardware configuration essential for stable and performant operations.
+
+One of the most critical system settings for high-throughput workloads is configuring the kernel parameter `vm.max_map_count`.
+This setting ensures that the system can allocate enough virtual memory areas, which is essential for avoiding memory-related issues.
+
+<Callout type="warning">
+The standard recommended values for `vm.max_map_count` may be insufficient for high-throughput operations.
+If you encounter `munmap` errors or crashes due to `bad_alloc` errors, you should try increasing the `vm.max_map_count` value beyond the recommended amount.
+</Callout>
+
+You can find detailed setup instructions and recommended values in our 
+[system configuration documentation](/database-management/system-configuration#recommended-values-for-the-vmmax_map_count-parameter).
+
+If you're deploying Memgraph on Kubernetes, our Helm charts include an **init container** that automatically sets `vm.max_map_count`
+during startup. However, this container requires **root privileges** to execute. If you're running in a restricted environment
+or prefer not to use privileged containers, you'll need to **manually configure** this parameter on the host machine.
