Puppeteer RAM leaks
Hey! Hope y'all have a good day:)
My problem: after few hundred of fetches via Puppeteer I think I've had few RAM leaks, which will have to be fixed by me of course. Problem is, after deletion of latest deployment I still see constant 1.8gb ram used (same express app eats up to 100mb in another project 
I was wondering, is there a way to restart the machine or clear the ram somehow? Or should I just re-add the repo to my project? Thanks in advance!

What are you using puppeteer for?
Think its best to redeploy or restart service if railway has it
Regarding leaks make sure to close old instances or use manager
If they do have restart look for three dots menu usually it hides there
