Hi, Since I have ceph in prod, I experienced a memory leak in the OSD forcing to restart them every 5 or 6 days. Without that the OSD process just grows infinitely and eventually gets killed by the OOM killer. (To make sure it wasn't "legitimate", I left one grow up to 4G or RSS ...). Here's for example the RSS usage of the 12 OSDs process http://i.imgur.com/ZJxyldq.png during a few hours. What I've just noticed is that if I look at the logs of the osd process right when it grows, I can see it's scrubbing PGs from pool #3. When scrubbing PGs from other pools, nothing really happens memory wise. Pool #3 is the pool where I have all the RBD images for the VMs and so have a bunch of small read/write/modify. The other pools are used by RGW for object storage and are mostly write-once,read-many-times of relatively large objects. I'm planning to upgrade to 0.56.1 this week end and I was hoping to see if someone knew if that issue had been fixed with the scrubbing code ? I've seen other posts about memory leaks but at the time, it wasn't confirmed what was the source. Here I clearly see it's the scrubbing on pools that have RBD image.
