What defines the RAM usage?
I have 2 applications currently running in Railway. But one of them is using 565 MB of RAM while the other is at 277 MB, both should be really idle as they don't have much traffic, my question is what defines the amount of RAM usage each service use?

Up to your code entirely
How much traffic, jobs, could even be almost the exact same codebase with 1 line difference
We just run your applications
Yeah, just after placing this question I was thinking that I have 2 services in that project, and I'm noticing that MySQL is eating up 500 MB RAM
Ah yup that'll do it
Anything else or cool if I close this?
Yeah, the app is running at 49 MB.
no yeah thats awesome quick question
Welcome welcome!
is there a difference between mysql and psql ?
I have another service with psql with way lower RAM usage
MySQL tends to be more hungryr
