I put GitLab on a personal server a week or two ago for some stuff, and I'm sorry to say it but the overwhelming takeaway from that experience was watching it hog memory and spawn what felt like a million processes which somehow lingered for days after uninstallation until I noticed them. This thing runs one process, idles at 0.0% CPU, and is blazing fast in <450MB memory - when all you want is a nice git GUI for a small group it seems pretty perfect.

I'm sorry to hear you experienced stray processes. Did you use the Omnibus packages? Did you use gitlab-ctl stop?
