Memory Optimization & Scaling

Memory bloat quietly inflates hosting costs and causes restarts at the worst moments. We tune Puma, Sidekiq, allocators and code paths so each process does more with less — then design for the next 10× in traffic.

Leaner

smaller processes, same work

Sound familiar?

  • →R14 / R15 memory errors or OOM-killed containers
  • →Paying for larger dynos or instances just to stay up
  • →Sidekiq workers ballooning over time
  • →Uncertainty about whether the app can handle a launch

Our approach

  1. 01

    Profile

    memory_profiler, derailed_benchmarks and heap dumps to find allocation hot spots and leaks.

  2. 02

    Tune

    jemalloc, Puma workers/threads, YJIT, Sidekiq concurrency and connection pool sizing.

  3. 03

    Scale

    Load testing, caching layers, read replicas and queue architecture for predictable growth.
