delayed_job memory leak?

[1c7]

Sharetribe Version:

6.1.0

Environment:

Ubuntu 14.04

The Problem

After running bundle exec rake jobs:work
This delay job would slowly take up all the memory the server have, and cause server down.
I have to manual restart server at Cloud Provider website (I am using Azure from Microsoft)

How did you guys solve this problem ?

I am thinking about migrate from delayed_job tosidekiq

Ping @bladealslayer have you noticed any memory leaks in our production workers?

[bladealslayer]

No, I haven't, but ours get restarted once per day automatically anyway (by Heroku). @1c7 have you tried setting the ImageMagick-related memory limits? Maybe it's not memory leak, but memory spikes during image processing?

You can try setting these environment variables in the process that starts the workers:

MAGICK_MAP_LIMIT=64MiB
MAGICK_MEMORY_LIMIT=256MiB
MAGICK_TIME_LIMIT=30

@bladealslayer Thank you, I would try your setting.

According to this issue from delayed_job Github repo, I think it's not Image process problem,
But I would try your solution anyway.

Thanks again

I would close this issue in couple day.

once the test result come out.
