n8n - 💡(How to fix) Fix Workspace going constantly offline [2 comments, 3 participants]

Describe the problem/error/question

What is the error message (if any)?

• error: all

TL;DR

The issue can be mitigated by adjusting the concurrency setting and optimizing workflow memory usage.

Guidance

• Review the workflow execution history to identify patterns or specific workflows that are causing the "Running Out Of Memory" issue, and optimize their memory usage.
• Consider reducing the concurrency setting from 5 to a lower value to prevent overloading the system and causing the workspace to go offline.
• Investigate the use of datatables and Google Sheets in the workflows to ensure they are not contributing to the memory issues.
• Check the pruning settings to ensure that old executions are being properly cleaned up and not consuming excessive resources.

Example

No specific code snippet can be provided without more information about the workflows, but optimizing node configurations, such as reducing the number of nodes or using more efficient nodes, may help alleviate memory issues.

Notes

The provided information suggests that the issue is related to memory usage and concurrency, but more detailed analysis of the workflows and system resources may be necessary to fully resolve the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Reduce concurrency setting and optimize workflow memory usage, as this is likely to provide the most immediate relief from the symptoms described, and further investigation can be done to identify and address the root cause.
