MySQL Memory Usage
Hey there, we just migrated to Railway and in the last 24h I saw that the memory usage is consistently at 500mb, without much traffic.
Is that normal? / Do we have to expect at least 5$ sub + 10$ memory usage each month?

That is unfortunately completely normal memory usage for a MySQL deployment, MySQL is a memory hog, I'd recommend Brody's MariaDB Template though, it's basically a drop in replacement for MySQL and should be a lot more memory effecient

you can also try adding that parameter to the end of the start command as stated by brody

but it wont do any miracles lol
friendship ended with medim, now fragly and grid are my best friends
i can confirm that swapping in mariadb saves about 100-150mb of memory overhead
