    Apps, in general, will use as much RAM as the OS allows them to. A lot of the time, the consumed memory is for caching. And this is true for Jellyfin as well.

    My server, after a fresh reboot, is using about 800MB of RAM. Memory usage over days and weeks usually creeps up to ~2.5GB, pretty much all of that increase is Jellyfin. I don't notice any slow down, but I'm only running JF and samba so it isn't doing a lot.

    Your system shouldn't feel slower just from 50% memory usage, though. When you look at top are there any processes using a lot of CPU time? What about iotop? Anything using the disk when you notice these slow downs?

    What are your full server specs?
    Jellyfin 10.10.7 (Docker)
    Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS w/HWE
    Intel i3 12100
    Intel Arc A380
    OS drive - SK Hynix P41 1TB
    Storage
        4x WD Red Pro 6TB CMR in RAIDZ1
