Thanks for the replies everyone - not sure where I read it now but I always thought we were to set 2 workers per core. I’ve dropped the workers down now per forum, allocating more to the busiest forums and less to the ones not as busy. I’ll monitor things over the next week and report back if it hasn’t help.

**Edit** : Think I read it [here](https://meta.discourse.org/t/users-kicked-out-of-topic-more-memory-required/163855/10).
