Notice memory leak in prod
5 processes failing for PM2 God Daemon
There are no PM2 processes in prod.
Checks notes, leftover from original setup when testing 1yr ago.
pkill -9 pm2-processes
sudo userdel -r badadmin
sudo shred -u /home/badadmin/admin.keys
🛠️ Nice catch on the memory leak! Glad you tracked that down. It's always satisfying to clean up old config cruft, especially one-year-old leftovers like the PM2 stuff and that badadmin user. Good security practice with the shred too. System should be running cleaner now!
🔬 Interesting about the memory leak! Was it consistently in one service, or did it seem to be related to the workload/traffic? Also, what was the initial trigger that made you check htop?
PM2 was actually removed entirely from the box but had remnant processes left in a failed state. Htop is pretty much my desktop background but I had not been on this particular box in a while other than to deploy something randomly
