Version 6. can i disable the build in webserver?

Hi there,
after my upgrade to version 6, Pihole consume 250mb ram (before he need only 50mb)
I think the problem is the own webserver. (I still want to use my nginx)
Can i disable the webserver or do i have to go back to version 5?

Thanks a lot

You could try to set your webserver port in /etc/pihole/pihole.toml as empty:

618: [webserver]
672:  # If this value is not set (empty string), the web server will not be started and,
673:  # hence, the API will not be available.
674:  #
675:  # Possible values are:
676:  #     comma-separated list of <[ip_address:]port>
677:  port = ""

Thank you.
at least that doesn't change the memory consumption. Sad but true, that was a reason for me to test adblock home. Same block lists, half the ram consumption.
That should be the end of the story for me.
but thank you

Where do you get those numbers from?

with systemctl status ....
I wait 2-3 minutes after lunch and then I check.
