Thanks - we may find this is the same issue as that I have been investigating here Non-responsive after 1.15.0.659 ubuntu upgrade - #74 by sa2000
But i need better evidence so that i can definitely say if it is the same or another bug or more than one bug
The logs show two EPG refreshes - these incremental updates happen every 4 hours. The two were started at 11:43:43 am and 15:43:43 pm
The increase in memory usage from 7,599,544 at 15:42:54 to 8,193,288 at 15:43:54 we can guess it being related to the 15:43:43 EPG update = but I would like to know what happened to the memory usage between 11:42 am and 11:48 am
The chart for memory use you attached does cover period from 15:39:54 onwards but the memory snapshots show memory at 7,599,544 at that time - and the chart seems to show it at or close to 10Gb throughout - is that chart giving actual memory used ?
What would be the reason for the gap in memory snapshot times between 15:43:54 and 15:46:33 ?
Lets make the snapshots at 30 seconds and please write to a file and start from a new launch of Plex Media Server. There may be additional memory usage issue for XMLTV and the extra snapshots may help pin this down
#!/bin/sh
while sleep 30s
do
now=$(date +"%D %T")
mem=$(ps -p $1 -o drs=)
echo $now "," $mem "\n" >> mem_snapshots.log
done
and try and download logs every 6 hours or so and provide these logs as well as final set of logs plus the whole memory snapshots text file
The EPG incremental updates are done every 4 hours with the first soon after launch
I will pass your comment on about there may not be need to refresh more than once a day for systems where the xmltv source is only updated once a day
