Woke up this morning to NodeBB not running.
-
Afternoon, so, I woke up this morning, to see that my forum had gone down overnight. I rebooted it using Terminal for iPad, and it went down again about 45 minutes later. I'm currently running it in Dev mode to see if I can catch any errors, but I've no idea what caused it.
The RAM usage does sit quite high when nodebb is running. Around the 79% mark, if I update nodebb while it's running, the server maxes out and crashes. So my question, should I up my RAM, or turn on swap? Or both? Having a full gb of ram should help, amirite?
The events in ACP stop at 5:30, so I assume that's when it went down, used memory says 70.82M, which doesn't seem that high...

So is it known yet if this was due to an error, or due to legit memory usage?
Enquiring minds want to know

@zenkamal I have no idea, the last 3 events were editing posts, I had app running in dev mode for an hour, no issues, I then started it normally and left terminal open on the logs while I went out, came back, no issues. I'll keep an eye on it, but since enabling swap, hopefully I won't have any more issues.
Redis does use more memory when it is writing to disk so that might be why you are seeing those spikes and crashes.
