[BUG] Startup on 3.1.0 consumes too much cpu

[twsouthwick]

Environment

Self-Hosted (Docker)

System

Docker version 26.1.1, build 4cf5afa

Version

3.1.0

Describe the problem

After launching the container with switching to 3.1.0, the memory/cpu consumption starts going through the roof. I hadn't put constraints on this container (now I do :)) and it was taking over my VM:

6e8b003b68a1   dashy                       190.58%   739.2MiB / 1GiB       72.19%    8.11kB / 1.68kB   897kB / 24.6kB    212

it will cycle through very quickly to take all the available memory/cpu.

Hi
I can't seem to reproduce your issue, neither lissy I guess.

Could you share a bit more?
RAM usage on dashy container available ram, cpu usage.

Does it ever go down, or just the first build?

[DerLokich]

Same thing. Updated today and RAM & CPU overloaded

Could you provide more details?

Does dashy always consume such high amouts, just at start?
Can you share like some more info about ram and cpu usage of the container?
This can be viewed the easiest with portainer.

I just make repull to update dashy and right after start i see 4 processes "vue-cli-service build", that consume all avaible memory and CPU, so other containers were not avaible. Even console works with huge lags... Only hard reset helps and right after rebbot need to quick stop dashy

[CrazyWolf13]

Please be more specific.

Does the usage go down after some time, like 5 min at max?

How much RAM exactly?
How much have you assigned?

The first build of dashy takes a bit more ressources, but there aren't any more rebuilds neccessary later on.

I've waited about 30 mins, but as other contaniers doesn't working, i do hard reset.
Host 2 Gb RAM, 2 vCPU, all avaible for dashy.

@DerLokich

Just for testing, could you extend it to 3GB RAM ?

And would you mind sending a screenshot of the ressource usage from container start to like 10minutes?
After freshly pulling the image?

This can be done with portainer:

docker run -d -p 8000:8000 -p 9443:9443 --name portainer --restart=always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest

Thanks!

To @twsouthwick

1GB is a bit less for dashy, could you try with 2GB?
Dashy uses quite a big amount of ressources for the first build, but since V3, there are no more rebuilds neccessary on config changes.

While I got it to work with a raspberrypi which only has 1GB of RAM, memory management is different compared to like a VM or a big server running dashy.

Thanks!

Can't extend, it's VPS in another country :).

Just for testing i tried to take screenshot in portainer, but VM stuck after eating all resources...
Only last output of htop avaible now:
