Native Linux server (with management scripts)

No nothing interesting in the logs Im afraid, the saveworld command did seem to correlate with the crashes, but not always, so its probably just a coincidence.

There are around 15 players on the server. CPU load gets somewhat intensive (80%-90%) but ram seems to be doing ok, even though the game does seem to use around 2GB (log says heap grows to around 2.8GB). Do you have any idea how I could confirm if the game is running our of memory anyways? Does the game run as a 32bit process?

Edit: Well it does seem to be 32bit, is there any way I could try running it as 64bit?

No way unless you find the required 64 bit files (and I can tell you that's basically impossible atm)

So well, 2.8 is quite a bit already, but I can not say for sure if that's the problem.

Well I dont have anything else to go on so I guess it really could be the memory and all I can do is wait for patch to improve that :/

Thats a pitty about the 64bit version, I guess there is no point in me looking if you didnt find it lol .

Hi Isalof. To check your server's status, how about using top command.

like,

#!/bin/sh
sdtdpid=$(cat /TO/YOUR/INSTANCE/7dtd.pid)
top -b -n 1 -p $sdtdpid > /TO/LOG/DIR/top7dtd.log

Oh and before that (with the previous version) the server was throwing the following exceptions:
