Absurdly high RAM usage
Been running a server on this for a while now. We had to switch to Malden however, as playing on Altis would effectively grind to a slow crawl after a few hours of action, with no real reasoning. The RAM usage maxes out at its allocated amount (5GB for the server) with no real rhyme or reason. Even on Malden it sits at nearly 4.5GB of RAM usage, something no other scenario we have tried even gets close to reaching. The server machine is really decent too, it practically has an i9 all to itself.

Essentially on altis player commands to AI groups take a while to get through, AI begin behaving strange and we just give up.

I don't have a way to debug where that RAM goes since I don't have any access to such debugging tools, so no idea. Maybe it's the mods you use? Did you try with standard AAF faction?

Also first thing you need to do when evaluating performance problem is check the frame rate at the server. You can do it with #monitor 3 admin's command.

I'll have a look today, will keep you posted. This is utilising the RHSAFRF Russian faction, so that could be it.

Maybe. Also try to unlock the RAM of your server to let it use more and see if it stabilizes at some number. If it won't stabilize then it will crash of course but then we will know for sure that there is some memory leak.
