🚀 Feature: Improve RAM usage of docker image

[ThowZzy]

🔖 Feature description

The docker image (0.17.4) uses a lot of ram even thought its not even in use, maybe the database has too big values or something?

Would be nice if it was using less ram, and when its in use maybe use a bit more.

Thanks for your report. Do you encounter the high usage only since version 0.17.4? And to be sure, the high memory usage isn't while uploading files?

[ThowZzy]

I always noticed this usage a bit higher than other more optimized images even in older versions. And no I did not upload yet on this install. To clarify, its not always 400MB, here the current usage, but I think it could still be optimized somehow.

It's not really a bug but more of an improvement, if it's possible :)

[stonith404]

I've checked the memory consumption on my arm64 Linux server and on a Windows 10 PC and I got around 200mb RAM usage which is acceptable in my opinion.

docker stats:

htop inside the container:

Would you mind to share these two stats too? For the first one you just have to run docker stats and for the second one you have to to run the following commands:

docker compose pingvin-share bash
apt update && apt install htop
htop

[ThowZzy]

Almost the same, a bit more

I just find it strange for a simple webpage to be the biggest memory consumption compared to all these other sevices But no, its not ridiculously high

[stonith404]

Yeah I mean it's still not perfect but in my opinion it's acceptable. Do you think we could convert this bug report into a enhancement?

Yes

On version:0.18.1 Unraid version 6.12.4

When downloading large files my server's RAM completely fills up until the program crashes, is this related?

Sur la version :0.18.1 version non raidée 6.12.4

Lors du téléchargement de fichiers volumineux, la RAM de mon serveur se remplit complètement jusqu'à ce que le programme plante, est-ce lié ?

I have the same problem during upload and download pingvin consumes the entire ram and crashes the program with a permature close

[stonith404]

@babsz02 The premature error is probably related to #354.

[babsz02]

@stonith404 In my case, the premature error occurs when the ram is used to 95% when I download large files. However, by disabling proxo-buffuring in my swag config, I can download small files without any problem. The problem comes when uploading and downloading large files.

This might be part of the #354. I'll try to test it again with the 24GB file that caused Premature error on the latest 0.22.2 image.

[axiomen]

I downloaded a 24 GB file, and did not encounter the same memory problem as @BBergle on my Unraid host. Neither did I experience the Premature error.

[stonith404]

Thanks, @axiomen. Could you guys try it again, too?
