I am running a hobby project and last month the memory billing is more than expected. Since it is early stage hoppy project I am worried about the monthly billing overshooting. Please suggest.
Here is the memory of Feb vs Jan and please suggest how I can keep memory consumption low.
Memory (per MB / min)
Jan 13–Feb 13, 2026
63,196,157
$0.00000023148148 $14.63
Memory (per MB / min)
Dec 13, 2025–Jan 13, 2026
21,462,696
$0.00000023148148 $4.97
One change I have done I have scaled down the replicas and limit from max 8vCPU and 8GB Ram to 2 vCPU and 2 GB RAM. Please suggest if this will reduce the perf of server?

Hello! It depends a lot on what app you are running how much memory it will use, and how it will respond if you set a lower memory limit.
What kind of app are you running?

Seems like a nextjs app? There are libraries and general cache that make up majority of the memory issues. This is technically an app issue but if you can provide more info about tech stack I might be able to help.
