Yes, the pattern I’m seeing is that boots on 256MB machines will OOM where they previously booted and ran under load just fine. I’m working around it temporarily with the [addition of swap](https://community.fly.io/t/simple-phoenix-app-with-shared-cpu-1x-is-failing-with-oom/21164/14), but I’m hopeful that we see a response from Fly on the topic and see resolution. Their responses on the thread I link to are quite discouraging so far though 😕
