I'm playing around a bit with Orion (2.0a6) and I noticed that the uvicorn server is leaking memory quite badly. Is this something worth reporting?

Of course! Thanks for reporting. Do you have more details to share or replicate that I can forward with the team?

Replication should just be "prefect orion start" and keep it running for a while. No need to do anything else.

Thanks! Will forward to the team

Hey @Wieger Opmeer, just want to double check that this is not with an in-memory database? The default is a SQLite file so you would have had to change an environment variable.

this is with the default SQLite db afaik

👍 This just means that it’s not leaking memory while idle and that requests are causing the issue

yup

I imagine this is really an issue in FastAPI/uvicorn — there are some reports on Github that appear to be unresolved.

I've use FastAPI/uvicorn before, outside of prefect, and haven't noticed memory leaks, but maybe I was lucky in not triggering them.

Hey! We’ve dug into this and found the issue. This will be resolved in the next release.

👍
