MongoError: connection 1 to localhost:27017 timed out

Now that I got my Zenbot running and simulation working (thanks to you all :=), I ran on the next problem; when I try to backfill the data for the simulation, I always get the following error:

_:~/zenbot$ ./zenbot.sh backfill poloniex.LTC-BTC --days 370
.....
poloniex.LTC-BTC saved 19054 trades 360 days left
.
poloniex.LTC-BTC saved 21814 trades 359 days left

Few other users in this forum have also had this same problem, but I could not find any valid solutions for this. What could I do to make the simulation work??

Actually, could it be so that Zenbot needs more than 1GB of memory even in Linux for the backfill & simulation? If so, how much??
