# Memory usage

 * Since about two months my site has continuously run out of memory (128mb). Today
   I finally found out the wppa plugin has something to do with it. Deactivating
   it completely solves the issue (but of course that’s not what I want 😉 ) Interestingly
   the log is filled with errors (~ every minute), even without any visitors on 
   the website. Sadly my log doesn’t go back far enough so I can match it with an
   update to the plugin.
 * I expected it to be a cronjob issue, but disabling cronjobs in the settings did
   not solve it. Do you have any idea what could be causing this issue? I noticed
   a two threads that mention fatal errors, but the posts are focussed differently,
   however maybe others are experiencing this same issue.

 * I just found the plugin filled with errors as well. It start right after ‘DB 
   updated’. I just re-initialized the plugin. For about 30 minutes there were no
   server errors, but then it started again. The wppa log did not get any new entries.

 * This errormessage means that there is no photo with the supplied crypt code. 
   Nothing to worry, maybe someone used an old link and the photo does no longer
   exists or has been given another crypt code.
    BTW, the error should read `Invalid
   photo identifier (2): <any cryptic code>`
 * `DB UPDATED` means the plugin has been installed/updated/setup

 * Could there then maybe be an n+1 query issue somewhere? The error log wasn’t 
   necessarily my worry, more that i’m constantly running out of ram on the server.
   I’ll do some more testing this weekend.
 * It actually seems to be a lot better today
