Memory leak in tranlog restore
In restoring a tranlog, there is a memory leak. While this can be a 3M
leak per tranlog restore operations, depending on other factors it can
be more than 500M per tranlog.
This is primarily an issue for warm standbys, which continuously restore
tranlog one by one. Eventually the stone will run out of memory and shut
down.
Workaround
Restarting the stone frees up the memory. Restarting the stone does not
affect restore state, so it can be done between tranlog restores in a warm
standby.
