Add --max-old-space-size=1024 to the node process running the Next.js server. This caps V8's old-generation heap at 1024MB, forcing the garbage collector to run more aggressively as memory usage approaches the limit. Previously, users saw Next.js RSS grow to 4GB+. This was caused by a reference chain that prevented GC from freeing memory: AfterContext (vercel/next.js#89091) retained ServerResponse objects after client disconnect, which held zlib Transform streams (from compress: true), which allocated native C++ buffers outside V8's heap entirely — invisible to GC and uncapped by --max-old-space-size. Combined with the prior commit's fixes (compress: false moves gzip to nginx, httpBatchLink closes connections faster, socket-cleanup.cjs destroys zombie CLOSE_WAIT sockets every 60s), GC can now actually reclaim memory because: - zlib native buffers no longer exist (compress: false) - The AfterContext → ServerResponse reference chain is broken by socket cleanup destroying the underlying sockets - The JS heap is capped at 1024MB so V8 GCs more frequently for the memory it does control Also fixes the Dockerfile to copy socket-cleanup.cjs from the builder stage instead of the host context.

Create T3 App
This is a T3 Stack project bootstrapped with create-t3-app.
What's next? How do I make an app with this?
We try to keep this project as simple as possible, so you can start with just the scaffolding we set up for you, and add additional things later when they become necessary.
If you are not familiar with the different technologies used in this project, please refer to the respective docs. If you still are in the wind, please join our Discord and ask for help.
