Elementor using too much memory

  • I have a wordpress setup working with Elementor. After building the most of the website I started experiencing issues with 500 Server error when I click the Elementor update button. I had 256Mb of memory dedicated to this site (inside Docker container).

    After some time is again started hanging up with the same error. Once again I checked the logs and again it was memory issue. I upgraded to 512Mb and that fixed it.

    Couple of days later, same story, same solution, I added 1Gb to the instance and it was working fine until today, where 1Gb became unsufficient. The newest error from today is:

    PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 1073741824 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 401408 bytes) in /var/www/html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2022

    I believe that this is too much memory and I don’t see it stopping ant some threshold. I am writing to look for an advice what might be causing these issue?

    One more thing I noticed that the database is becoming huuuuge. Currently it is almost 3Gb in size. Much larger applications in years of usage didn’t manage to fill such large amount of data in database as Elementor is doing in couple of days.

    Any advice?
