Description
Despite having increased memory on mailman3 from 8Gb to 12Gb, 'uwsgi' just uses up more of it:

I suspect this is also making uwsgi slower and slower - today since midnight 1040 time-outs:

I did some googling and I have amended uwsgi.ini with this:
# Worker Management
max-requests = 1000 ; Restart workers after this many requests
max-worker-lifetime = 3600 ; Restart workers after this many seconds
reload-on-rss = 1024 ; Restart workers after this much resident memory
worker-reload-mercy = 60 ; How long to wait before forcefully killing workers

I am not sure if the above has worked or not. There has not been any oom kill since I added it, but I have just now seen a uwsgi process with about 4.5Gb in use. It was replaced soon after though.

No, it works. I have just watched uwsgi being stopped and a new process started.

I don't get it.
Today, four oom kills:

In the last thirty days, only one oom kill. It seems clear that there is a memory leak, but at least this work-around (uwsgi.ini) seems to have taken care of the worst. Clearly this needs to be salted, but I'll admit I'm not very good with salt.

We are no longer using uwsgi, but it would be worth checking if a similar issue doesn't happen with gunicorn

I have just checked - 66 oom kills in the last two days.

As I have been playing with the nginx rewrite map, I noticed several gunicorn worker processes using up 1Gb and more. It seems they had been running for a few days, e.g.
[2023-03-10 04:37:15 +0000] [7650] [INFO] Booting worker with pid: 7650
[2023-03-11 23:46:17 +0000] [7650] [ERROR] Error handling request
[2023-03-14 11:39:35 +0000] [7650] [INFO] Worker exiting (pid: 7650)
(from /var/log/postorius/gunicorn.log)
I decided to just kill off 4-5-6 of those with more than 1Gb memory in use. Of course this immediately released a lot of memory, and
I started wondering if doing it regularly might just be an idea.
Just as for uwsgi, I have added a "--max-requests" argument, set to 100. That may seem quite low, but I think it is worth trading in some start-up seconds for lower memory usage.

Have increased to 500 - with 100, a worker was restarted about every 10mins. Every hour should be good enough.

Yup, looks good to me. Memory usage is way down, no swap in use, more than 3Gb free.
I added the max-requests argument to the command line with a systemd drop-in override:
# /etc/systemd/system/mailman-web.service

Obviously requires saltifying, but I think I'll procrastinate for a while. Do we need a category called "Salt pending" ?

Actually, a status "Salt pending" might be quite useful.
