Hey guys recently I upgraded my Root Server from 16 gigs of ram to 32 gigs, but now even when nothing is running its at 55% usage?

#

Also before I upgraded to 32 gigs I was running my FiveM server at like 3 gigs total?

#

somewhere around that

Try restarting it.

If it won't drop after a while and you have nothing running I would suggest you to contact the support.

#

then yeah ill contact support soon

#

its been like this for around 2 days?

deft elbow
#

Oh, that's way too long. It should drop after 1-2 hours. Go ahead and let the Zap team look at it.

Zap-Hosting uses "balooning" basically its normal that ram usage can be displayed wrong, if your server requests more ram it gets it.

Peter, 2 days after restart. That is not normal.

All my servers resources usage drops after 1-2h after restart tho.

Hello

#

This would be a matter of Memory Ballooning

#

It can happen at any time for any period and also happens on rootservers and vps’s

#

Your system shares resources to other customers (which is whats being displayed) if your not using it. The host does this to help balance the load on the system for all customers.

#

You may be wondering So I am not getting what I paid for?
That is infact incorrect the system is virtualised in a way to when you need to be using all 32gb of ram you will be given it as its part of a memory share thats set by proxmox.

In short you have what you paid for until you need to actually use it all it gets shared to customers

#

Thats what every large scale vps/rootserver host does

#

If you like you can report this in ticket and ask to be moved to a different system to where it may be quiter? However its not guarenteed. If your looking for full resources to be privatised (ram,cpu,network) the only way is to purchase a dedicated server since they are then fully dedicated to yourself ans nobody else.

#

I hope this answers your question

#

If theres any other queries please be sure to ask
