Can You please give me advise on what to do to stop using resources?

Hi Lukjod,

By the look of what you posted, it looks like you are using a Docker image.

Have you tried a few of these things

- Restarting Deluged + delugeweb
- Rebooting your QNAP NAS
- Trying to pause each torrent after reboot and slowly start a few to determine if a specific torrent is causing high resource usage
- Try using a older Docker images of Deluge to see if that changes the situation.
- Do the logs say something?

This is for example my systemd unit-file execStart, so i can at lease see if something is being logged that is causing problems. Otherwise you could use the debug one. It is possible that you have to use maybe the environment variables of the docker compose file

Info:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/deluged -d -L info -l /var/log/deluge/deluged.log

Debug:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/deluged -d -L debug -l /var/log/deluge/deluged.log

It looks like you are using this docker image:

https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/deluge

There change the loglevel to info or debug and see if you see any output.
