Free up CPU ressources about unoserver HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @regebro. I'm very sorry to answer with a such delay. For now I was unable to extract any document that failed to be converted. But I keep track of this discussion and will send you examples in the future that maybe could help you to improve the converter. For now, as you've suggested in another thread, I put a timeout (60 sec) for the conversion and manually restart the process in my container if it get stucked.
Regards,

We usually push new versions of our app every few days, and then the servers are restarted. That might be why we haven't noticed any such issues. It does seem like Libreoffice never releases memory, if your server gets lower on memory, that could be a cause.

There are problems with some documents never finishing, but that doesn't seem to be the case here?

Many thanks for your quick answer !
Hum, it may be the case where of never finishing conversion. But in that case, how can I force a timeout ?
I'm gonna have a very intensive use of the server (about few thousands of conversion per day), and I have to process a global catchup of the two past years data. It will probably represent terabytes of files.
Could you give me the least resource amount I should reserve for the server. For now, I'm using docker containers, and fix the limit at 2 cpus / 4G RAM. Is that enough in your opinion ?

I don't know how much is needed at all, and I also have no idea how to monitor docker containers. We run it on virtual machines, so if it would use up all the memory we would see that on our monitoring.

If you can find an example document that gets stuck that would be great, then I could do some tests.
