Maybe the same issue: Parsing some documents causing huge amount of memory. Example: https://web.dev/feed.xml

As for https://www.biobiochile.cl/ everything seems to be fine for me. Guess it depends on content. As for https://web.dev/feed.xml I surely can see that cpu starts to heat up. Hope I will take a look soon. Thanks!

From my part: In the end I opted only for a plugin that detects the feeds and give me the links without previews.

Yeah, I noticed that it must be that web.dev has heavy interactive content and has lot of entries in feed. Guess I should think of some kind lazy rendering.
