Public bug reported:
I have problem with neutron vpnaas in Kolla-ansible (Victoria, from
source) on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS, kernel 5.4.0-65-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP
Mon Jan 18 17:25:17 UTC 2021 x86_64. Neutron client version 7.1.1,
neutron server version 17.1.3.dev22.
After enabling vpnaas plugin everything was ok at first. I was able to
create VPN connection and communication is correct. But after a week of
running vpnaas (only one VPN connection created/working!) I’ve noticed,
that neutron-vpnaas takes more and more memory. I have 5 processes on
each controller (there should be always five? Or it is changing
dynamically?):

now neutron_server takes over 27G of RAM on each controller:
neutron_server running 10.2 27.2G
and forced controllers to use swapfile.
After stopping all neutron containers and starting it again neutron
takes a lot less memory:
neutron_server running 0.5 583M
but memory usage keeps growing (about 5-6 M every minute).
There is only one, bidirectional vpn connection between project networks in two
regions.
There is no (or almost no) traffic on this vpn link.
Second region is on one host (kolla all-in-one) and situation looks the same-
with vpn service enabled there is excessive Memory use (growing also about
5-6MB/ minute and forcing the system to use swapfile).
There is no big cpu usage (ofcourse also due to no traffic inside VPN)
It's the same case even if there's no vpn connection configured.
