There is almost 5GB being used by Redis, so that leaves Discourse with little to work with, specially considering how many unicorns you are running.

If your sidekiq queue is clean, try cleaning Redis since it may have too much garbage from the import:

```plaintext
./launcher enter app
redis-cli flushall

```
