Minio server is eating up memory like it has gone crazy (30GB)

[thedevd]

I have very simple usecase of using minio to store hardly object size less than 10MB, I am running minio server since a month and each day I see the memory is increase by significant amount, and currently it is consuming 30GB memory.

I have no idea what is happening with minio server process.

@thedevd we have no idea what you are doing, I suspect mostly you have is page-cache memory. MinIO won't generally use upto 30GiB.

Please provide the setup and share mc support profile alias/

@harshavardhana

From an app, we keep sending the files in every 5 seconds towards minio cluster using mc mirror command -

mc alias set minio http://<minio-ip>:<minio-port> minio miniopw
mc mirror --exclude "minio*" --overwrite --remove /apps/<app-name>/data minio/<bucket-name>/apps/<app-name>
mc alias remove minio   

I am not able to use mc support profile command, it asks me to register license

mc alias set minio http://<minio-ip>:<minio-port> minio miniopw
mc support profile minio/
mc: <ERROR>  Please register the cluster first by running 'mc license register minio'

Do you know how can I configure the page-cache memory being used by minio server ?
