<li>According to the system journal, it was a Node.js dspace-angular process that tried to allocate memory and failed, thus invoking the OOM killer</li>
<li>Currently I see high memory usage in those processes:</li>

<li>I bet if I look in the logs I&rsquo;d find some kind of heavy traffic on the frontend, causing high caching for Angular SSR</li>

<ul>
<li>Analyzing memory use in our DSpace hosts, which have 32GB of memory
<ul>
<li>Effective cache of PostgreSQL is estimated at 11GB, which seems way high since the database is only 2GB</li>
<li>Realistically this should be how we adjust, with PostgreSQL using ~8GB (or less) and each dspace-angular process pinned at 2GB&hellip;</li>

<li>I put some of these changes in on DSpace Test and will monitor this week</li>

<li>Some bot in South Africa made a ton of requests on the API and made the load hit the roof:</li>

<h2 id="2024-09-11">2024-09-11</h2>
<ul>
<li>Upgrade DSpace 7 Test to Ubuntu 24.04</li>
<li>I did some minor maintenance to test dspace-statistics-api with Python 3.12
<ul>
<li>I tagged version 1.4.4 and released it on GitHub</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="2024-09-14">2024-09-14</h2>
<ul>
<li>Noticed a persistent higher than usual load on CGSpace and checked the server logs
<ul>
<li>Found some new data center subnets to block because they were making thousands of requests with normal user agents</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>I enabled HTTP/3 in nginx</li>
<li>I enabled the SSR patch in Angular: <a href="https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3110">https://github.com/DSpace/dspace-angular/issues/3110</a></li>

<ul>
<li>Experiment with the <!-- raw HTML omitted -->dspace-statistics-api-js<!-- raw HTML omitted --> on DSpace 7 Test
<ul>
<li>In the past it always caused Solr to run out of memory, but I increased Solr&rsquo;s heap from 2g to 3g and it runs without crashing</li>
<li>I attached VisualVM to Solr with a 3g and 4g heap and iterated over 1260 pages of results in the dspace-statistics-api-js:</li>
