Thank you to all who responded to my question!
The memory issue seems to be fixed now, and I would like to share what worked
(and what didn’t).
I first tried setting MaxMemInQueues to 512, then 384, while still running Tor
0.2.5.16. This didn’t help.
Adding the option DisableOOSCheck 0 caused

That advice is quite sensible in my opinion and should be incorporated into
tor mainline. With the recent load spikes, I've always wanders why is there
a need for that may MB or

I think the advice to create swap will get George kicked of VPS, as it goes
right against the wishes of hosting company, and directly affects their
hardware.
A better advice is to tune tor process to work within memory boundaries.
The "MaxMemInQueues 512 MB" is right direction, but from personal

I think running on 1 GB of RAM with no swap is going to be difficult,
especially if you have decent bandwidth and your node is busy.
You can create a small swap file on the existing file-system like so:
sudo fallocate -l 1G /swapfile
sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo sw
I am running a Tor (0.2.5.16 on Debian Linux) relay on a VPS with one
gigabyte of RAM and no swap partition or swap file. The hosting company
states that it doesn't support swap in order to prolong the life of its
solid state drives.
Tor gradually uses up more and more memory until its percent
