Jellyfin runs within docker on ubuntu 22.04. Everything runs fine but occasionally my system load spikes up dramatically and becomes unusable. I do not think that Jellyfin is the sole contributor to this spiking but when looking at the system using htop I can see several jellyfin processes using a significant amount of memory and CPU. While I've got jellyfin running permanently I am still using plex so jellyfin should just be idling and not use significant resource.
Maybe it's some kind of scheduled job in jellyfin but the processes which I see are all the same
/usr/bin/jellyfin --ffmpeg=/usr/bin/jellyfin-ffmpeg/ffmpeg
I'm wondering if there is something I can do about this or diagnose further what might be causing this?
I think the high load is actually caused by Plex but that's another investigation and I'm trying to get to the bottom of everything
