Version [1.6.5.20] [2015-09-21 22:51:12] Version [1.6.5.17] WARNING: /opt/firebird/bin/fbserver is using 2058 MB of memory

Unless there is another error that also reports that the system is running low on memory, this error can be used as a warning.
The specific Critical error shows that the Firebird database was using more than 2 Gig of RAM during the Archive process. Since the system is busy making a backup of the database during this time, the database engine was using a lot of ram, but it never reported that the system ran out of memory and it doesn't report this error during the day.
