btw, I'm seeing what seems like a similar situation when trying to run erigon on a RasberryPi with 8gb ram. I have swap setup so erigon never gets killed, but...

got it, does it matter where? I'd probably add it above these statements: https://github.com/ledgerwatch/erigon/blob/c6a000997e39b4bb89a2b73403dbdf9fb16780c0/cmd/erigon/main.go#L56-L58

`compress.SetDecompressionTableCondensity(6)` is working much better now (using `alpha` branch, `devel` seems to be broken) with --batchSize 16M I'm seeing batch hit 64MB before committing memory is staying much lower, I'll...

Hmm, once I increased to `--batchSize 256M` and it started writing out to the DB I got this error: `Staged Sync err="runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference,...

Update here, I finally got through the 7/16 Execution phase, it took 3 weeks 😁 with `--batchsize 24M` and `--txpool.disable`. It looks like there is another possible leak in the...
