If you don't experience any OOM , you can focus on the heals.
284 processes of glfsheal seems odd.
Can you check the ppid for 2-3 randomly picked ?
ps -o ppid= <pid>

htop reports that memory usage is up to 143G, there are 602 tasks and
5232 threads (~20 running) on clustor00, 117G/49 tasks/1565 threads on
clustor01 and 126G/45 tasks/1574 threads on clustor02.
I see quite a lot (284!) of glfsheal processes running on clustor00 (a
"gluster v heal cluster_data info summary" is running on clustor02 since
yesterday, still no output). Shouldn't be just one per brick?
