Docker Memory Usage

[Pulse7247]

I didn't like how much memory was being used by Jellyfin, so I limited it to 8GB in my docker compose file.

But I am worried what will happen once it tries to push past the limits?



   deploy:
     resources:
       limits:
         memory: 8G

This is the next day:



Now it has dropped back down to 817.4MiB. Has anyone else limited their docker containers and does Jellyfin crash or anything?

I noticed there are a lot of github issues open about memory issues.

Yeah I know that 37GB wasn't going to kill my system but I didn't think it needed to be juicing my system that much.

Forgot to mention I am on v10.10.7

Hi.
In the hypothetical case that jellyfin reaches the allocated RAM limit, what will happen is that the jellyfin docker instance will restart, if you have it defined, for example in docker-compose.yml
