Hello, After setting up LVS with Direct Routing, I noticed that even there is absolutely no traffic passing through the LB, the memory usage grows continuously until the whole RAM is filled.
Doing some investigations in /proc/slabinfo, I noticed that the RAM is used by "dentry": dentry 18933940 18933940 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8 : slabdata 946697 946697 0 The memory can be freed using: echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches As soon as the memory is cleared, it starts filling up again. I find this behavior very odd and concerning. If anybody has experienced something similar, or has any ideas, please share. OS: CentOS 6.4 64bit kernel: 2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64 latest patches applied via yum update Thank you!
