Pm2 mode cluster project Next 14 infinite reload

Question

I have a Next 14 project running on PM2 in cluster mode, my VPS has 4 vCPUs, when starting only one process is stable while the other three processes are in infinite reload. Below is my ecosystem.config.js configuration file.

module.exports = {
  apps: [
    {
      name: "application",
      script: "npm",
      exec_mode: "cluster",
      instances: "max",
      args: "start",
      env: {
        NODE_ENV: "production",
        PORT: 5000
      },
    },
  ],
};

pm2 version: 5.3.1

In the last image the three clusters restarted 24 times

I used max_memory_restart even though the problem continues, the VPS has 6GB of RAM.
