I just deployed my simple HTML app. It's just basic HTML with a fetch request to my Go backend, but the memory usage is too high—almost 50MB—while my Go backend averages just 5MB. Did I do something wrong, or is this normal?

OK, I didn't do anything, and memory usage just dropped to 14 MB. Interesting, but I expected it to go lower—below 10, or even better, near zero.

Hello,
Previously your static files where being served with NGINX when the memory was 50MB, but since switching to Railpack your static files are now being served with Caddy (a program written in Go FWIW) so memory is now lower.
Either way, memory will never drop to zero unless you use serverless, because to serve static files you need to have a server running, and servers will of course use memory.
Hope this helps!
Best,
Brody

Understandable, thanks for the response! I'll use Railpack from now on. Is there a way to make it the default for all new projects?

It should already be the default for all new projects and services.
But to be double sure, you can place this railway.json file in your repos -
