If you do try building a release, I’m curious to see what the memory usage turns out to be. I made a quick comparison in a project of my own and also just a plain new phoenix project, in both cases memory use was much higher in the release. Why do releases use so much more memory than `mix run`?
As I point out though, my comparison may be unfair, as not all code is necessarily loaded in the mix version when I checked memory use, while releases preload all modules. But you should be able to get an accurate comparison.
