Anyone else have this problem or know a solution?
My instance has almost no usage, and I'm using the version recommended in the docker instructions.

how long does it take for pict-rs to use up this memory?

Too bad I did not check for how long the service was running before restarting, I'll check next time.

I think I had to do this twice so I guess at least several weeks but I was up to 7GB then only 65MB after restart. And I had to do it on both my test and production server.

what I noticed personally is that my pict-rs server had eaten 1,200MB of RAM, which is the limit I allowed that container. it was still working and it automatically restarted on crash so I didn't notice it oops

after I fixed the problem, my pict-rs server has been running at about 29MB for the last 12 hours. Significant improvement I'd say
