It sounds slightly similar to what I just experienced.

I had one monitor out of three, which seemed to essentially run one core at
full tilt continuously, and had it's virtual address space allocated at the
point where top started calling it Tb. Requests hitting this monitor did
not get very timely responses (although; I don't know if this were
happening consistently or arbitrarily).

I ended up re-building the monitor from the two healthy ones I had, which
made the problem go away for me.

After the fact inspection of the monitor I ripped out, clocked it in at
1.3Gb compared to the 250Mb of the other two, after rebuild they're all
comparable in size.

In my case; this started out for me on firefly, and persisted after
upgrading to hammer. Which prompted the rebuild, suspecting that in my case
it were related to "something" persistent for this monitor.

I do not have that much more useful to contribute to this discussion, since
I've more-or-less destroyed any evidence by re-building the monitor.

Cheers,
KJ
