Resolved Memory Useage

[BlakCrab]

Hi All, I have setup my VPS with Plesk Onyx, everything seems fine but memory usage is always high, interesting part is there is no load on server, can anyone please explain how to fix this issue or is there a way i can check for memory leaks.

That doesn't look out of the ordinary to me. 1GB memory is pretty standard. You can view what is using the most memory using the command:

ps aux --sort -rss

Nothing looks out of the ordinary there. You have a Plesk , mysql, bind, nginx, docker and a bunch of other stuff all running. Its going to take at least 1GB ram.
