As a FYI:

SABnzbd gotted killed on my low-RAM machine (512MB) with a big download (45GB) with big chunk rar files (500MB each).

Terminal:

Code: Select all

Killed
dmesg confirms the reasong: Out of memory

Code: Select all

[Wed Jun 20 18:45:31 2018] Out of memory: Kill process 20813 (sabnzbdplus) score 645 or sacrifice child
[Wed Jun 20 18:45:31 2018] Killed process 20813 (sabnzbdplus) total-vm:2415428kB, anon-rss:274120kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB
[Wed Jun 20 18:45:31 2018] oom_reaper: reaped process 20813 (sabnzbdplus), now anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB, shmem-rss:0kB

So ... if SABnzbd gets Killed, check your dmesg for "Out of memory" ... ;)
