Around 1 million of inodes in lru table!! These are the inodes kernel has just cached and no operation is currently progress on these inodes. This could be the reason for high memory usage. We've a patch being worked on (merged on experimental branch currently) [1], that will help in these sceanrios. In the meantime can you remount glusterfs with options --entry-timeout=0 and --attribute-timeout=0? This will make sure that kernel won't cache inodes/attributes of the file and should bring down the memory usage.

I am curious to know what is your data-set like? Is it the case of too many directories and files present in deep directories? I am wondering whether a significant number of inodes cached by kernel are there to hold dentry structure in kernel.
