    I moved my WP site to a new hosting and suddenly when trying to reach /wp-admin I get this error:

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 32 bytes) in /home/accname/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3076

    when I rename the Jetpack folder the problem disappear. reinstalling jetpack doesnt help and the error reappear.

    That’s a common WordPress issue I’m afraid. You can follow the instructions here to solve that problem:

    Does this mean that jetpack consumes more memory then an ordinary plugin should?

    Not necessarily. While Jetpack does indeed require a fair amount of memory if you use multiple modules, it doesn’t usually require more than any other plugin. Of course, that will depend on the plugin, but in general such errors often pop up because of 2 things:

    • Either the memory allocated to PHP on your site was low to begin with.
    • Either you use a sum of plugins and themes, that together require a large amount of memory.

    By upping the memory available on your site, you should be able to get things fixed.

    is there a minimum needed today? Im on shared hosting.

    WordPress recommends at least 40MB for single sites, and 64MB for multisites. This may of course change depending on the number of plugins you use, as well as your theme, but that’s a good baseline.

    thanks,
    I appreciate your responses.

    I talked to my hosting and they updated to 32mb. problem solved. I hope it lasts.
