| The [working set](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/debug/debug-cluster/resource-metrics-pipeline/#memory) metric too high | This issue occurs when there is a significant difference between the [working set](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/debug/debug-cluster/resource-metrics-pipeline/#memory) metric reported by the [Kubernetes Metrics API](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/debug/debug-cluster/resource-metrics-pipeline/#metrics-server) and the actual memory consumed by an application. |

| Out-of-memory (OOM) kill | This issue indicates memory issues exist on your pod. |

| Increased memory usage after heavy disk activity | After operations such as backups, large file reads/writes, or data imports, memory consumption rises. |

| Memory usage grows indefinitely | The pod's memory consumption increases over time without reducing, like a memory leak, even if the application itself isn’t leaking memory.|
