Hi, I have a problem that I think is the same as the one described there:<div><a href="http://rabbitmq.1065348.n5.nabble.com/Excessive-memory-consumption-of-one-server-in-cluster-setup-td21617.html">http://rabbitmq.1065348.n5.nabble.com/Excessive-memory-consumption-of-one-server-in-cluster-setup-td21617.html</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>We have a rather low volume application, with message rates well below 1000/sec. There is only one server. At some times, although neither the size of the queues nor the message rates increase, Rabbit starts to very quickly consume huge amounts of memory. It often goes up to its high watermark limit and stops processing messages, and has to be restarted. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The attached screenshots show graphs of the total number of messages in all queues vs. the memory used by Rabbit. They clearly show that the memory increases are not linked to the size of the queues. I have the output of rabbitmqctl report available, but as it is rather big I put it there:</div>
