SABnzbd uses memory in bursts.
When it reads in a new NZB file it temporarily uses three time size of the NZB.
It's not exactly tuned to low memory systems.
Whether 128M is enough depends very much on what else you run.
I'd be careful with setting a memory cache for SABnzbd.
The OS should solve memory problems by swapping, provided your swap partition
is large enough.

Well, I'm happy that this problem is out of the way.
I will still add better error reporting to SABnzbd.
Thanks for your patience.
BTW: I don't know if you use a SABnzbd memory cache.
If that causes swapping it's counterproductive as it's meant to reduce disk access.

Comfig=>General, item "Article Cache Limit".
Code: Select all
How much memory can be used for caching (reducing disk access).
0=Disable Cache -1= Unlimited cache number = Maximum memory (in bytes) to use for cache.
See "High speeds" for more information.
You enter the amount in bytes but you can use factors like K, M, G etc.

Okay, this is set to zero!
