    from my server logs, seems to be something with RSS? My provider says I am “getting hits from your own server IP that is causing site to crash”.

    It wouldn’t be from my plug I don’t think, as it’s only job is to look up images on posts only when the RSS feed is being visited and output.

    From the looks of it, it’s saying mysqld is out of memory, and wants to kill that process. The simple test would be to deactivate the plugin and see if it continues.

    The rss in the dmesg output is not RSS, it’s rss referring to “resident memory in use”…

    The fields are:

    pid The process ID.
    uid User ID.
    tgid Thread group ID.
    total_vm Virtual memory use (in 4 kB pages)
    rss Resident memory use (in 4 kB pages)
    nr_ptes Page table entries
    swapents Swap entries
    oom_score_adj Usually 0
