30 words direct answer

Monitor, back up, and eliminate Mods first, and then make a restart strategy.

Detailed description

The increase in memory after a long run may be related to the number of bases, the number of visible Pals, building density, player online, Mod or server version, and cannot be directly attributed to a single configuration. Server owners should first keep logs and monitoring data, test based on bare server/Modded (modded) layers, set regular restart windows, and confirm that normal archiving and re-login can be achieved before and after each restart. If the server is repaired or new problems are introduced after 1.0, this question will be written back according to T0-05 server verification.

Judge your situation first

what do you want to do nowJudgment methodNext step
short spikeFirst check whether players' entry and exit, teleportation, base loading, and large-scale battles cause spikes. Don't rush to upgrade the configuration.Look at performance risks
monotonic rise for a long timeRecord memory curves, logs and the number of people online, schedule regular restarts and retain archives before restarts.See verification checklist
Modded serverReappear on the naked server first, and then restore the Mod one by one; opening it all at once is of no troubleshooting value.See Mod Catalog

Operation sequence

orderaction
1Turn on monitoring: record memory, number of people online, number of bases, logs and restart time.
2Test the naked server baseline once to confirm whether it can be reproduced without installing the Mod.
3Check for base density, visible pal count, path stuck, and large number of lights/particles.
4Formulate a restart window: save before restarting, log in and out after restarting and re-enter for acceptance.

Common misunderstandings

Misunderstandingwhy to avoid
Only upgrade configurationIf the problem is from a mod, base structure, or server version, upgrading will only delay the breakpoint.
Draw conclusions without monitoringWithout a timeline, it's impossible to distinguish between leaks, spikes, and normal caches.
Restart without acceptanceFailure to confirm saving and logging in after restarting may just postpone the problem to the player.
