program crashes somewhere when the browser is launched and chromium starts to consume very high cpu

orphan chromium processes still remain active and consume cpu as if the browser isn't closed.

workaround for now:

restart the container
cron schedule to pkill all chromium after the bot runs

update: when this happens, the bot doesn't post anything on discord.
possible source of error could be these lines since:

codezinger-due-date-scraper/scrap_data.py

Lines 173 to 176 in 7401be2

    
           browser = await launch(executablePath=chrome_path, 
        
                                  headless=True, 
        
                                  options={'args': ['--no-sandbox']}) 
        
           page = await browser.newPage()

since they're not under try/except

relevant log files:

red is the last log and since when the chromium high cpu usage is started
green is when i manually restarted the container

processed running when cpu usage is high:

Last log message:

possible workarounds:

if opening chrome or that process takes more than 90seconds, kill it and restart
(and/or set a cpu limit in compose)
add the --disable-gpu param
downgrade to python 3.9
install all puppeteer's dependencies

exact LOC where the freezing happens (confirmed via logs):

update:
unable to reproduce the problem when running current version and previous version repeatedly, but --disable-gpu does help in drastically reducing CPU usage.

graph:

running the program for 2 weeks, commit a64681c does seem to have fixed the issue

	browser = await launch(executablePath=chrome_path,
	headless=True,
	options={'args': ['--no-sandbox']})
	page = await browser.newPage()
