Also, adding stork-focused email distro, though I suspect the membership is largely overlapping 😊

Good morning, Darren
These were taken from node2, which is a backup node. And no, I have not done anything to the processes, not even restarted them over the course of a last week or so. I looked through the logs and I do not see any explanation for the behavior.
Node1 is where I constantly change the config (it is the lab after all) and the process is restarted over and over again (“service xxx restart” from shell) but even there I would not expect a process hanging for any reason

Hi Marek,
It appears that kea-dhcp4. kea-dhcp6, and stork-agent were started multiple times. I do not know how you are starting the daemons but perhaps something changed with the startup process (systemd?) that caused the thing that is starting the daemons to not realize they are running, thusly starting them multiple times?
Thank you,
Darren Ankney

Looking at the historic utilization over the week
you can clearly see a rather dramatic increase in memory utilization starting 5/10, with no specific changes to what the node is doing.

Subject: High memory utilization for Kea server / Stork agent
Dear colleagues,
I have been observing very high memory utilization for Kea VMs. In ~4 days, the memory utilization has grown from ~2 GB to close to 8GB for no good reason.
I seem to be running multiple copies of processes for some reason, with stork-agent likely being the primary culprit, and Kea DHCP servers being likely the second culprit. I have the very same situation on both lab nodes. I have to restart the server / stork agent periodically to eliminate the memory bloat.
