UPDATE

Here is my log: (warning it's huge)

Gist Log

I'm not really sure what to look for though.

@julian Thanks for the input and sorry I never responded. I restarted the server along with adding a 2GB swap file for my droplet, ran for the last three days but crashed again today Not sure what I'm doing wrong exactly, when I looked at graphs I noticed my CPU usages spiked at hit over 100% for about an hour for some odd reason. Hopefully I've got my configuration setup.

I have a small community of about 60 users and since installing NodeBB I've run into an issue when I am having to powercycle my server daily. The first time I kept running out of memory on my 512mb droplet, so I upgraded to the 1GB but I'm still getting the same issues.

Everything I got setup ran fine and normal for a few days, but now with a little bit more activity on the community I'm running into this issue almost daily.

I host 3 other sites as well (two WordPress, one just static, all non node sites)'

I did some research and most people said everything was fine, so I'm not sure what the issue really is or how to check for the issue. When I scope out my CPU or MEM usage using top it doesn't seem to be using enough to warrant frequent slow loads or restarts.

Of course, I am a super noob at this and this is my first node site in general that's actually live. Any help or maybe just pointing me in the right direction would be awesome.

P.S. (could it be certain plugins?)
