Service using much more RAM on Railway than Local | Railway | Page 1

Hi, my discord bot is using a lot more ram on Railway than on my local machine.

Railway: https://i.mrxbox98.me/file/2023/10/firefox_7CMFWfJz4N.png

Local: https://i.mrxbox98.me/file/2023/10/WindowsTerminal_bEvWZJ2DHO.png

This is my first time using btop to check RAM usage so lmk if I'm measuring wrong locally.

railway uses the start script by default, but you aren't using the start script when testing locally

blazing surge Nov 1, 2023, 12:17 AM

#

I changed the railway default so it is npm run bun-run

gilded flint Nov 1, 2023, 12:18 AM

#

have you tested your app locally in a docker container too?

blazing surge Nov 1, 2023, 12:18 AM

#

Ill try that and get back to you

@simple orbit - the something to do with bun

simple orbit Nov 1, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

Ah yep let me look at this on my laptop

#

can you please change your start script to this and let me know what version it prints out? please do this locally and for railway.
if there's a version mismatch that may be the issue here as they've been fixing a fair few memory issues recently.

bun --revision && bun run src/index.ts

My local is 1.0.7+b0393fba6200d8573f3433fb0af258a0e33ac157, for some reason the command on railway didnt print anything. Another strange thing I noticed was when I switched to node the memory on railway went down from 1.4gb to around 800mb while on my local node uses more memory than bun.

#

the increased memory usage is likely due to the difference in bun versions and environments

blazing surge My local is ``1.0.7+b0393fba6200d8573f3433fb0af258a0e33ac157``, for some reason ...

How did you setup the one for railway? 🤔

Nvm I was able to find it, I think I was looking at an old version. Turns out the install was for some reason installing bun verison 1.0.2+37edd5a6e389265738e89265bcbdf2999cb81a49

yep that's probably part of the issue then. i personally run a Dockerfile to make sure im on the latest version of bun because of this.

blazing surge Nov 2, 2023, 7:16 AM

Yeah not sure why the latest bun npm release tagged 1.0.7 is actually 1.0.2
