Description

I got

PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 1052672 bytes) in /var/www/nextcloud/apps/files_fulltextsearch/lib/Service/FilesService.php on line 319

I have 8GB memory - virtual server

after running awhile
real 11m15,892s
user 6m32,832s
sys 0m37,570s

I am surprised to see "generateIndexFiles" - its on the NC server - not the elastic server - which is healthy

Research direction

Start with apps/files_fulltextsearch/lib/Service/FilesService.php around line 319 and follow the generateIndexFiles path during indexing. Reproduce the failure with the reported document and chunk progress, then determine where memory grows on the Nextcloud server rather than Elasticsearch. Done means the indexing run no longer ends with the PHP memory exhaustion error.
