[rabbitmq-discuss] abnormally large memory use in "binaries"

Fri Oct 11 18:23:38 BST 2013

It happened again today with just 500 messages in a queue where the average message size is 280B, which would be about 135k.

Doesn't rabbit track message memory usage separately in the "Message store index" ?

The disparity from way under 1mb to 18gb of used space makes it seem unlikely message storage is at fault unless things are just not being cleaned up (such as a memory leak).

I take it from your response that this is not currently on the radar as a systemic problem.
