I run Docker image in CircleCi.
When i restore mongodb it throw error exceed memory limit.
In the memory-usage.txt, CircleCI is running a lot of nodejs which increase memory.

Could i stop nodejs or do something to fix that issue?

Any luck with this?

I have a similar problem. When executing ā€œnpm testā€ the process is killed (without actually running any test) and the memory dump says 32 node.js procs were running using all the memory.

Hello @jpiqueras, @huytran,

Do you have a link to a build you can share so that we can take a look?

Hey @zzak,

For my case I posted the problem and the solution in here:

Basically jest is not detecting the number of cpus of the container but from underlying machine. This makes it create lots of threads.

I imagine something similar is happening for the case described here.
