Running Docker-ized qBittorrent v4.6.0. 64-bit on Ubuntu 23.10. Seeding 29 torrents, Leeching 0 torrents.

According to Glances, it’s using 18 Gigs of memory which seems high. I just wonder if maybe I have a setting somewhere that is problematic? Or is this typical behavior?

    you may have weird cache settings that is storing large amounts of the torrent data in memory. this is not inherently bad- reduced disk IO hits extends disk life and increases performance, unless your system is memory constrained and it’s affecting other programs.

    how are you viewing memory usage? virtual memory pages and true physical memory usage can be displayed very weirdly on a lot of linux systems
