setting up minecraft server in pterodactyl ram issues

hey, i switched my host and bought a kvm, i now installed pterodactyl and i uploaded my minecraft server to it and used the default minecraft paper egg, now the issue is while starting the server the ram rises drastically to the limit (18GB ram) and then crashes due to out of memory, i also allocated 1GB of swap, the other host i used before i only had 16gb of ram in total and the server actually only uses ~6gb of ram
Solution
Youre double setting xmx, also didnt you say the limit was 18?
