Recently i've had some troubles with my Jellyfin, and by running sudo docker stats i saw my Jellyfin used close to 27 GB out of 31 GB - This was 10.9.6
I dont know why it used so much RAM, i tried to run all maintain tasks, but the RAM usage did not go down, i ended up shutting down the server for an hour and when started again and the RAM usage was below 400 MB. Today its gone up to 3 GB, but thats okay for me, but it makes me curious about what Jellyfin uses the RAM for, and an option to "reset" the RAM usage in Jellyfin - It seems like this is not possible currently without going beyond jellyfin and run server commands or just shut it down to start it up again. - With Linux command:
free -h && sudo sysctl -w vm.drop_caches=3 && sudo sync && echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches && free -h
The RAM usage is down to below 600 MB by Jellyfin
