How do you check the memory usage? We have a osd_memory_target=11G and the OSDs consume this exact amount of RAM (ps aux |grep osd). We are running 13.2.8. ceph daemon osd.$id dump_mempools would give ~ 4 GiB of RAM. So there is more RAM usage than only specified by "mempool" obviously. > > The documentation of osd_memory_target refers to tcmalloc a lot. Is > this in conflict with allocator=bitmap?

AFAIK these are not related. We use "bluefs_allocator": "bitmap" and "bluestore_allocator": "bitmap". Gr.
