تسرب الذاكرة في آخر تحديثين

الدعم تثبيت
1

خلال الأسابيع القليلة الماضية، لاحظت أن استهلاك ذاكرة النظام يتزايد تدريجيًا كل يوم حتى يصل إلى الحد الأقصى.

في السابق، كان استهلاك الذاكرة يتراوح بين 50% و55% (على نظام سعة 3 جيجابايت). أما الآن، وبعد تحديث النظام، يبدأ الاستهلاك عند 50% ثم يرتفع ببطء على مدار الأيام التالية ليصل إلى 85%، مما يؤدي إلى بدء استخدام ذاكرة التبديل (swap).

هل توجد طريقة لمعرفة العنصر المسؤول في Discourse عن هذا الارتفاع التدريجي في استهلاك الذاكرة؟ حيث يُظهر مدير المهام أن Ruby هي العملية التي تزيد ببطء من حجم الذاكرة التي تستهلكها. ويبدو أن كل عملية Ruby تستهلك 350 ميجابايت وتستمر في النمو (تبدأ بأقل من 200 ميجابايت مباشرة بعد التحديث).

لقد قمت بالتحديث إلى v2.3.0.beta9 +392 قبل يومين، وقد ارتفع الاستهلاك بالفعل من 50% إلى 75% ولا يبدو أنه يستقر.

Try updating again. We noticed the same issue, and applied a fix a few hours ago. (commit 1, commit 2)

3

Okay updated and it’s restarted with 47%, will keep an eye on it. Thanks for the quick response.

4

It’s already creeped back up to 61% 64%, the Ruby processes are all now in the range of 310M-340M, will watch it for a day and report back.

Not sure if it’s related but I’m seeing this every night for the past week or so around 1am in the logs:

Sidekiq is consuming too much memory (using: 502.99M)

5

You could try enabling the sidekiq logs, and then look for which job is causing the problem. Some information on those logs can be found in this commit message

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/8963f1af30cd72627e35ce04b317b775435c6f22

6

The memory utilization is back up to 73% and doesnt’ seem to slowing down. It’s now beginning to take up swap space.

I’m not sure how to do this, would need some guidance. I had a look at the commit and it talks about setting 2 environment variables. How do I do this? I’m not familiar with ruby/docker and don’t want mess anything up as this is live.

Is there anything else I can look at to see why the memory utilization is creeping up?

I’m also seeing a new error in the logs after the update (2 since yesterday):

Job exception: post_revision_id

7

Did you do a rebuild? Are you on the default branch of tests-passed?

8

Yes and yes I assume, using the default setup (is there a way to select a different branch?)

9

There is, but that’s the right release to be getting any fixes.

10

@sam is this commit related to this issue? If so is it stable enough to update?

https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/76173dea87115589414a200ad7fc1f08a4deb280

11

The issue itself was fixed days ago, it is stable enough to upgrade.

12

Okay updated, I’ll keep an on eye on it, hopefully this will fix it.

I didn’t get what you meant by the issue was fixed days ago. The memory consumption as of this evening is still creeping up.

13

Does this fix require rebuild or can I just upgrade via UI?

14

Via the UI should be fine

15

Okay so I did a update and rebuild last night. The memory usage is back up to 71% and still growing. The only way to reduce it is to restart discourse at which point it drops back down to under 50% and then starts working it’s way up again. The CPU utilization is about 1% on average.

16

What process is growing ? Sidekiq? Unicorn worker? Redis? PG?

17

That’s a good question, which is exactly what I had earlier, how do I find out what’s taking up memory within Discourse? I can only see the task manager which shows that Ruby is taking up more memory with time (all the instances of Ruby are growing in memory consumption).

18

As root run ps aux repeat every few hours

19

Okay when it was taking up 71% memory the top 14 consumers (%mem) are:

After a restart and a couple of grace minutes, it’s showing 50% and the top memory consumers are

Looks like sidekiq, some of the unicorn workers and the postgres.

Let me know if you would like me to collect any other data.

You are running too many unicorns, those numbers look right to me 300-500 per worker is in the normal range

Cut unicorn count down by 3
