Wednesday at 05:19 PM2 days I've had the binhex-plexpass container running on my machine for years. Recently, I've noticed that my RAM usage (32GB) percentage has been steadily increasing. After bootup, the usage sits around 8%, most of that being system usage. Once start the Plex docker, the usage slowly increases over several days, until it's maxed out. If I restart the container, the usage immediately drops back to 8% and then slowly build up again. It's like the container is grabbing RAM when needed, but not releasing it. Any insight here would be helpful. Please let me know what info is needed. Thanks.
