Our experience is that the quality of Python ports for embedded systems varies quite a bit.
We see wildly different memory behaviour, none of which is directly influenced
by SABnzbd. Memory management is supposed to be completely automatic with Python.
Then again, I don't see the typical symptoms of memory issues on your system.
The only other thing I can think of is that the number of open sockets is too large
some system have a relatively low maxiumum.
Is there any experience with SABnzbd on the support forum of your NAS?

Assuming this is some Linux-based system, could you provide the info from the 'top' command from before and during your system having one of those "episodes". Only the topmost five or so lines (that give general about tasks, cpu, ram and swap, etc) will do.

On the support forum, there is alot of discussion going around this, but not specific this problem.

I will give the logs as soon as I reproduced the problem. It's based on Linux yes.

I might have found a fix.

I keep you updated.


BTW Does SABnzbd save the history of downloads in its memory? Is it needed to purge completed downloads?

It's stored in a sqlite database file.
What's kept in memory for a while is what is requested by the web-ui (the data for one page).
So a very large history is no problem, as long as you don't try to show everyhing.
Also, the history entry size is not related to the actual download size.

Sorry for the late response. Still trying to get my fix working. What is the default map for logs? Because i changed it... Now I cant read them anymore =.=

i can't access the logs anymore.

Logs and admin are normally in the same parent folder.

Administrative Folder:Location for queue admin and history database.
