[rabbitmq-discuss] looks like a memory leak, 2.4.1

[Aaron Westendorf]

Are you running the management plugin?  Specifically the web
interface? We haven't had trouble with the agents, but we observed the
same pattern you're describing on a node that was running the web
stack, with similar traffic loads. Haven't had time to write up a bug
report yet but I mentioned it in another thread.
