This tells us that the named process size grows large, but more
information is needed to discover why. Can you send us the following?

1. Your named configuration.

2. Regular dumps over time of the statistics that are available via
HTTP, as the named process grows. See the "statistics-channels"
documentation in the manual. You can use curl or wget to dump them to a
file.

By looking at the statistics file (it's available as XML and JSON), we
can see if any memory contexts grow large and that could point to where
this large amount of memory is being used.

Also, did you use a max-cache-size option when running the above named?
