I am using the Node-RED running in a Docker container on Ubuntu. When Node-Red starts it consumes about 2.6GB of memory, then in less than 24 hours it is up to 5.95GB (which is near the maximum available). I think there is a memory leak, how can I troubleshoot the issue?

Just a shot in the dark, but I had similar issue when I first started using node-red.

Turned out, Ii you use an rbe node on binary data its pretty much inevitable.

Here is the followup thread to the original where I stumbled onto the solution:
