High ram usage when idle on emby server - ubuntu server 24.04.3 LTS via docker

[Q-Droid 989]

The Emby server is a multi-threaded application and that htop output is showing all of the threads. That output is showing the server startup command line and arguments, not ffmpeg or ffprobe processes. Those are the startup parameters. When ffmpeg is used it will show as a separate process with its own threads. If the server is idle, not streaming or scanning, then you shouldn't see active ffmpeg processes.

Ah yep, should've paid closer attention. Those are just arguments. Oopsie!
