Describe the problem

Describe, step by step, how to reproduce the error or problem you are encountering.

Some of the WSGI container consume more than 5GB. We also deactivated the redis cache feature for some internal reason and we get at this moment 40 wsgi pods.

Hi @mathieu ,

Have you set and increased the BASEROW_AMOUNT_OF_GUNICORN_WORKERS env var? This env var controls how many worker processes are launched inside of each WSGI container, we generally see each of these processes consuming around 100-200mb so if you’ve increased this setting then you’ll see a much higher memory usage.
