Ran into an issue - the full-text service on this Mastodon website crashed a little under a day after I deployed it, so full-text search simply stopped working.

ElasticSearch takes a lot of memory, close to 1.6GB, which is fine, I can spare that much. I logged in today to see if it had increased, and saw my RAM at half-capacity, which immediately caused alarm. Dunno why it crashed, too, the logs say nothing.

@mehluv Make sure you have enough swap space. ES is very memory hungry.
