2 diffrent machines 2 crashes

[anylettuce]

Machine 1 that has been working for years. Dell r210. Noticed storage? or ram was 101 % utilization, kept crashing even after reboot

since I was moving over to a new unit thought nothing of it
Qotom 1U Rackmount https://www.servethehome.com/everything-homelab-node-goes-1u-rackmount-qotom-intel-review/ got the C3758R 2 m.2mvme for redundancy and 8gb ram. It was not exactly the highest quality stuff. Local computer shop, memory express,
This 2nd setup has the following
dual wan, still need to finish configuring. No WireGuard setup yet, not much for rules except some port forwarding. I have been noticing the ram use has slowly been creeping up.

the issues only really started once this new version was released. I even noticed the gui was smooth then started to run, pause then run and pause and repeat. its all smooth now but will see in a few days.
