Shout: The self-hosted web IRC client

I've used this for months. It stops working for no reason. I think it eats up too much memory and keeps increasing memory usage. I don't know, but I know it crashes after a few days.

Yes, I believe it keeps the whole message history in memory. I also used it for a few months and had to reboot it once in a while.

How are you running it?

I've had a shout server running on my DO droplet for 8 months now, and I've never had any issues.

I run it using nginx and Passenger (and the setup was quite simple, I had never set up a node app in production before doing this).

Could you do a blog post or something to show what you did?

I used it until I got the crashes just like parent.

That's not a Node problem, it's just a bug in the chat software.
