Investigating weekly memory spikes in EC2 instance with multiple connections


Question

I have to reboot my EC2 instance periodically due to running out of memory. I’m curious: does anyone know what is causing the weekly spikes in memory usage? I have 4 connections: 2 of which run every 15 min, 1 which runs hourly, 1 which runs daily.
