I am using ganglia-3.0.5 on a woodcrest processor cluster. and I see that after running for weeks the memory consumption of the gmond process is something about 400 MB. I tried to debug the problem by isolating a single node. But the problem continues with slower rate (rss memory growth). I tried to run the
