<div>Hi,</div>
<div><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"> </span></font></div>
<div>We use Gluster 3.6.9 in one replicated volume (named “log”), with two bricks.</div>
<div>Our tests include Nested Directory Creation operations (Creation from 1000 up to 250000 Directory Trees) with 396 depth and no deletion is performed.</div>
<div><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"> </span></font></div>
<div>We have observed the following memory usage statistics shown in the images:</div>
<div><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"> <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162032"><font face="Corbel" size="2" color="#0563C1"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><u>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162032</u></span></font></a></span></font></div>
<div style="text-indent:36pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"><a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162033"><font face="Corbel" size="2" color="#0563C1"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><u>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162033</u></span></font></a></span></font></div>
<div style="text-indent:36pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"><a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162034"><font face="Corbel" size="2" color="#0563C1"><span style="font-size:11pt;"><u>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162034</u></span></font></a><font face="Corbel" size="2"><span style="font-size:11pt;">
</span></font></span></font></div>
<div>(statedumps are in <a href="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162035"><font color="#0563C1"><u>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1162035</u></font></a> ) </div>
<div><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt;"> </span></font></div>
<div>and we would like your opinion if this memory usage is normal for glusterfs.</div>
<div>Also after our tests, we delete these directories and the memory is not released.</div>
<div>Can you describe us the expected memory behaviour in these cases?</div>
