I feel like we keep seeing people start with minikube, and run out of resources really fast, which makes all sorts of bad things happen.

We could add to:
https://agones.dev/site/docs/installation/creating-cluster/minikube/#starting-minikube

I was thinking something like:

minikube start --kubernetes-version v1.14.10 --vm-driver virtualbox --cpus=4 --memory=4g

But it would be good to find out what people are actually using before putting this out there.

My local agones testing env is working well with 2 cpus (old xeon 775 socket) and 2gb of memory. If i decrease memory to 1gb, gameservers and sidepods start crashing. Btw, i'm using virtualbox and sometimes use docker driver (when don't have virtualization feature) for minikube.
