Low memory systems

For single board systems / low memory systems, like the raspberry pi, I recommend only running a single celery worker. Celery is the task/worker component that handles all the searching and downloading behind the scenes.

If you skip this step, celery will use every available cpu (i.e. the pi v4 has 4 cpus), which I’ve found is too much for the raspberry pi to handle.

Specify the number of celery workers

Create a file .env at the top level of the folder and enter:

NUM_CELERY_WORKERS=1

Then bring everything back up again:

docker-compose up -d
