Jellyfin: Almost 1GB of memory usage

Created on 28 Aug 2020  路  3Comments  路  Source: jellyfin/jellyfin

Describe the bug
Jellyfin isn't working on anything at the moment, but uses almost 1GB of memory. Is this normal?

System (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS
  • Virtualization: Docker
  • Clients: Browser
  • Browser: Edge 86.0.615.3
  • Jellyfin Version: 10.6.3 (linuxserver image)
  • Installed Plugins: Playback Reporting, TMDb Box Sets, Theme Songs, Trakt
  • Reverse Proxy: none
  • Base URL: none
  • Networking: Host
  • Storage: local

To Reproduce
Start the docker container and leave it running a few minutes. Memory usage will start to go up until ~1GB

Expected behavior
Less memory usage, ~500MB.

This is known, The way "caching" was done previously was just storing things in dictionary's, so inevitably given enough time the entire database would be stored in memory. I fixed this for 10.7.

I'm new to programming but could this be because it never frees up memory? Or is this because it uses the .NET framework?

This is not a bug for me. Jellyfin runs with 1.1GB and 0.5 GB Cache in Docker. I have 16GB in total.
