Hi, I’d like to know if there is a way to reduce the RAM memory usage of InfluxDB2 . Starting from an empty state, it allocates around 400MB, and it start increasing the usage of RAM if you access dashboards. For some usages on servers where you run other services it could be too high Thanks

Tweak memory usage

Hi @Pooh, now a day 400MB is not a lot , however I wonder if there is some settings that allow us to drop the memory usage. In my case, InfluxDB v2 is running within a server with 2GB RAM and it is running with no more room for allocate more memory.
Thanks
