Excessive RAM Usage When Setting Up Cal.com Locally on Linux Mint

[mrtechnostart]

Description:

I'm encountering excessive RAM usage when setting up and contributing to the Cal.com project locally on my Linux Mint system. My system details and the observed issues are as follows:

• System Information:

  • OS: Linux Mint
  • RAM: 16.4 GB (16.1 GB used)
  • Swap: 2.1 GB (2.1 GB used)
  • CPU: Multiple cores, with varying usage levels (as shown in the attached screenshot)

• Issue:

  • While running the Cal.com project locally, the memory usage spikes to over 98%, and the swap usage reaches 100%. This makes the system extremely slow and unresponsive.

• Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Clone the Cal.com repository.
  2. Follow the local setup instructions.
  3. Run the project and monitor system resource usage.

• Observed Behavior:

  • High memory and swap usage as indicated in the attached screenshot.
  • Significant performance degradation, making it difficult to contribute to the project.

Additional Information:

• Node Version: v20.15.0
• Yarn Version: v1.22.22
• Using Docker and yarn dx to quickly setup application

Request:

I would appreciate any insights or suggestions to mitigate this high resource usage. Is this a known issue with the current setup? Are there any recommended optimizations or configurations that could help reduce the memory footprint?

Thank you in advance for your support!
