From 7f1476799c1324218a53ad62011f0d3f7f766371 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025 23:13:29 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Optimize RAM usage with lazy loading and memory limits Major RAM savings (1.5-3GB reduction at startup): - Implement lazy loading for embedding model, chunker, and reranker - Models now load on first use instead of at startup - Reduce embedding batch_size from 128 to 32 (saves 100-200MB spikes) Celery memory optimizations: - Reduce result_expires from 24h to 1h (saves Redis RAM) - Reduce worker_max_tasks_per_child from 1000 to 100 - Add worker_max_memory_per_child=256MB limit to prevent leaks Before: ~2-4GB RAM at startup After: ~500MB-1GB at startup, models load on demand --- surfsense_backend/app/celery_app.py | 5 +- surfsense_backend/app/config/__init__.py | 110 ++++++++++++++++------- 2 files changed, 81 insertions(+), 34 deletions(-) diff --git a/surfsense_backend/app/celery_app.py b/surfsense_backend/app/celery_app.py index 898ab9735..5dfe1b796 100644 --- a/surfsense_backend/app/celery_app.py +++ b/surfsense_backend/app/celery_app.py @@ -79,11 +79,12 @@ celery_app.conf.update( task_time_limit=28800, # 8 hour hard limit task_soft_time_limit=28200, # 7 hours 50 minutes soft limit # Result backend settings -
