Hi, I'm wondering if anyone may have a hint how to track down a memory leak in glusterfs client. The leak is easily reproduced (at least here :-)) by sending a "rsync -avP" or "find -exec head -c1" over the mountpoint, that carries millions of files. The leak happens while the rsync scans the directory, before transferring any files. I didn't collect any hard numbers up to now, but I've seen glusterfs proc growing to about 3.5 GB after scanning 5 mio. or so files. The size of the process never seems to shrink, and I believe that it's not growing while tranferring data (I have a bonnie running for a while now, which doesn't seem to add to the process size). I've seen a similar memory consumption in 1.3.0-pre4, 1.3.7 and even with the latest tla checkout, the latter accompanied with fuse-1.7.0-glf7, on a debian 4.0, on amd64 hardware. It appears as if switching on or off read-ahead/write-behind doesn't make much of a difference when it comes to the leaking, but I certainly need to check that more thoroughly. Other translators in the picture are afr and unify. And of course I'm very much wondering if other people can reproduce this phenomenon... Thanks, Sascha
