Cloudron Forum

@DualOSWinWiz the warning is like a softlimit warning. Basically the system will calculate the rough estimate of memory requirement based on the already installed apps and checks with the available memory of the whole system. Since memory usage heavily depends on the use-case and usage (number of concurent users for example) of apps on a Cloudron, we warn upfront to warn the admin, to at least keep an eye on the system to not overload it.

@murgero Well spotted! I didn't check the history. 🙄

@timconsidine Thanks, that is good to hear. I think it is quite natural when somebody discovers Cloudron to go wild installing things to try them and that takes quite a lot of RAM.

One other benefit of smaller applications is that there are often fewer lines where bad code could hide or where things could go wrong.

@murgero thank you, good advice, will try it out

@girish yeah, I've already bumped the memory up, thanks.

@girish Increasing the swap seems to have cured the problem. Additionally, there may have been a problem caused by a misreading of the amount of swap as originally on the Linode it said there was only 512mb but in Cloudron it said there was almost 1GB.

I have increased the swap from 512mb to 2048mb and I haven't received any app out of memory notifications since then so that seems to have cured it.

Thank you for your help.
