    Hello Bill,
    I’m getting this message >>

    Stop Bad Bots Plugin Warning: Your server running Low Memory !
    Please, check
    Dashboard => Stop Bad Bots => (tab) Memory Checkup

    but in Memory Checkup it’s 34MB (Your usage now: 34MB).. normally it is (33 to 34MB) every time I check..

    Current memory WordPress Limit: 96MB
    Total Server Memory: 256MB

    not sure what’s wrong here, maybe a false warning ?!

    Hi Oneray,

    I don’t think is false alarm. I believe you have peak of memory usage.

    Please, try to increase your wordpress memory to 256Mb, then, let me know if fix the issue.

    You need edit your wp-config.php file and update this row:

    from:

    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘96M‘);
    to
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘256M‘);

    Increase the WP Memory Limit is a standard practice in WordPress and you find instructions also in the official WordPress documentation (Increasing memory allocated to PHP).

    well, just increased to 128M, and the message is gone.. so I guess StopBadBots is using a lot of resources ?

    if so, can you please fix it in the next update ?!

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    I suggest to you increase to 256M. Have no cost to you.

    We don’t use more resources then necessary but if you have many plugins loaded, a complex theme (not wordpress twenty sixteen), many images and a lot of bots visiting your site and tryng to open many pages at same time, that can use a lot of resources.

    Anyway, i’m happy you are aware of your memory management now.

    Increase the WP Memory Limit is a standard practice in WordPress. You find instructions also in the official WordPress documentation (Increasing memory allocated to PHP).

    Cheers,
