One of my passion projects was down, could not understand why, then a few days later i saw it was back online.

What happened was i used apache on a 1gb vps, and every time there was any significant traffic OOM killer stepped in and killed apache.

But then, when lets encrypt generated a new certificate, in the process turned apache back on. Circle of life i guess.

Traffic is significant anyway these days, molodetz pulled a few hundred gigabyte in a few months. All crawlers and crawlers. Back in the day we crawled socially, not to kill any services but now they don't care anymore. Some times it looks like a ddos. I can't figure out how to limit my gitea instance well (just realize that i can just lower the docker resources) but that thing keeps spawning works. I've read everywhere in the docs, did find some things that don't work... It's mayhem.
