High memory usage, killed by OOM daemon

[nerdv2]

Hi, thank you for this project and I have been using it for almost a year now.

These past few months I keep encountering crashes and really sluggish performance and experience with the app due to excessive memory usage xpiped taken. Startup time could take around 1-2 minutes, using around 2-3GB of RAM and keep climbing until I close the application or killed by systemd-oomd.

I am using Git sync without encryption and currently have 12 groups and 384 connections.

Version: Community Edition 13.4.3
OS: Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

That must be a bug, anything over 1GB is too much. I have 500+ with git for testing and it doesn't even reach 1GB.

Can you try to create a heap dump with something like https://visualvm.github.io/download.html ?

Thank you for the quick response @crschnick

What version of Java do I need to create a heap dump? It seems I can't click the button to create one.
And it seems the heap size is way bigger than it currently consumes, around 1GB, as you said.

Ehm can you use /opt/xpipe/app/scripts/xpiped_debug.sh to run it? If that also doesn't work, can you edit the debug script and remove the -XX:+DisableAttachMechanism option?

[crschnick]

And if you succeed, you can upload the file somewhere and send it to me via email at [email protected]

[nerdv2]

Unfortunately running the debug option still doesn't show the option in VisualVM, and there's no disable attach mechanism within the debug script.

So I will try to release the first XPipe 14 test build in a few days, and I will probably just build a heap dump functionality into it. I think it's best if I come back to you in a couple of days when this is ready

Can you try this: https://github.com/xpipe-io/xpipe-ptb

In the troubleshoot options, there is a heap dump button.
