I see several issues related to high memory use, but locked.
What's interesting is the memory problem appears to only manifest during boot. After pihole-FTL gets killed and the server is running normally, I can:
pihole restartdns
to get it working without any memory issue.
I have successfully worked around it by disabling autostart, and doing so in rc.local, sleeping some time (40 seconds), and issuing 'pihole restartdns' before exiting rc.local. It works, but seems extremely kludgy.
Ideas?
Possibly useful info:
This is a armv5 device with a pihole-FTL built from source following the instructions exactly except for issuing: CFLAGS="-march=armv5te -mtune=xscale" make
This device has only 128MB memory. But it has 78M available after my kludgy soln above.
The GUI (and everything) works fine (I use apache2, not lighthttp) after pihole-FTL gets restarted.
