Hi everyone,

I would like to get your comments concerning the very high memory usage I'm 
seeing on my production server.
Some numbers:
- Running Ubuntu 16.04 and ArangoDB 3.1.15
- 5 document collections, 12 edge collections
- Around 200,000 documents
- A dump takes approximately 50MB of disk space
- A rather heavy usage of Foxx

Now this take *1.5GB* of memory on that Linux server. I've always been a 
bit surprised by the memory consumption but at the beginning I thought that 
ArangoDB required a lot of RAM to run and that was a fixed overhead that 
would not grow with the data, but I was wrong: it seems that the memory 
consumption increases linearly with the amount of data. Also for reference, 
I've a secondary DB (same VM config) that replicates the primary 
asynchronously and this one consumes more than 1GB as well.

So today I did the following experiment: I dumped the database and restored 
it on my Mac. I made sure all collections are loaded and had a look at the 
memory: only *200MB* and it even fell to 50MB for some reason. This makes 
me think that there could be something wrong with the way I run ArangoDB on 
Ubuntu or with the system config?

Any comment would be welcome, if you'd like to get the dump to test it on 
your side I would be happy to share it.

Thanks in advance,
Thomas
