Server Running Out of Memory
Why your Palworld server's memory usage keeps climbing over time.
Issue
Your server's memory usage steadily increases the longer it runs, eventually causing crashes or instability.
Solution
Palworld dedicated servers have a known memory leak that Pocketpair are aware of, this isn't specific to your service. A couple of things can help in the meantime:
- Setting
bEnableInvaderEnemy=FalseinPalWorldSettings.ini(stop your server first) has a noticeable impact on memory usage for some servers. - Scheduling a restart every few hours resets memory usage before it becomes a problem. How often depends on your player count and available RAM, if you're unsure, see our server configuration guide for where to adjust these settings.
If your service doesn't have enough RAM for your player count, contact us or upgrade your plan.
