Server process keeps killing itself

My (relatively vanilla) fabric server has 14gb of ram allocated on a 16gb OVH box, it has lithium + spark plus a couple other small mods, averaging about 4-8 players during the day normally. It kills itself every 3 hours, roughly, despite having plenty of ram and my players not really doing anything particularly intensive. I'm not sure what I should do, I think it's an OOM error because the server starts creaking the longer it's up.

highly doubt it needs 14GB of memory, and that's probably making things worse. try giving it more than 2GB of overhead. You still have an operating system that needs memory. Check kernel logs and look for any java processes being OOM reaped but tbh just stop allocating anything more than 8GB, maybe 12GB peak if you're heavily modded

How are you running the server? And are you on Linux make sure everything’s updated Check process list to see if an updater is like fork bombing I’ve had that happen Do you ssh in and run the server inside tmux? Or do you just let ssh die and server along with it by ssh in and starting the server in a regular console
