Version 2.18.4 Paperless-ngx shutting down every few days with OOM message

[RonV42]

I am running the latest paperless-ngx from proxmox helper scripts and every few days the UI is shutting down with OOM (Out of memory):

Sep 29 09:05:35 paperless-ngx240 systemd[1]: paperless-webserver.service: A process of this unit has been killed by the OOM killer.
Sep 29 09:05:35 paperless-ngx240 uv[371]: [INFO] Shutting down granian
Sep 29 09:05:35 paperless-ngx240 systemd[1]: paperless-webserver.service: Failed with result 'oom-kill'.
Sep 29 09:05:35 paperless-ngx240 systemd[1]: paperless-webserver.service: Consumed 4min 37.367s CPU time.
Sep 30 07:08:16 paperless-ngx240 systemd[1]: Started paperless-webserver.service - Paperless webserver.
Sep 30 07:08:17 paperless-ngx240 uv[32176]: [INFO] Starting granian (main PID: 32176)
Sep 30 07:08:17 paperless-ngx240 uv[32176]: [INFO] Listening at: http://:::8000

When looking at memory in the LXC its set to 2GB with about 1.5 GB used at any given time. What triggers the OOM? I have been restarting the service by running:

systemctl start paperless-webserver

And it will run again for about 3 to 4 days.

I'm not sure why you're asking us this. We are not developers of Paperless NGX. If their app needs more RAM, just add more RAM to the LXC...

Add more ram or an Swap to lxc

Yep I moved to 4 GB and will be monitoring.
