Mastodon running out of memory
-
Stock install, barely any usage besides logging in. Recommend bumping the initial memory provisioning.
-
@will Do you have many more apps on the system? It could be that the kernel decided mastodon is the one to get killed (you can see
dmesg
output and alsofree -m
output on the server to get some idea).I am happy to increase the limit though. It seems it is 1GB at the moment. Maybe we can make it 1.5GB.

@girish Well I have a ton of apps, but system utilization on my VM is still not maxing out. I actually have two mastadon apps, and they both died, and no others. I've seen this several times and only mention it now.
-
@will ah ok, will bump it up then. Is it more stable if you bump it up to 1.5GB?
-
@girish yes sir

I manually installed Mastadon on a Digital Ocean 1Gb droplet (unrelated to Cloudron), and with only 1 user and 5 posts, it ran out of memory. I bumped the droplet up to the 2Gb option and it ran smoothly.
