Hi.
We have a server with Zabbix Proxy. It works for AWS on Amazon Linux2. In fact, there are 4 such servers. But 3 of them are combined with Zabbix Server. Only Zabbix Proxy runs on one server.
All servers have a problem of increasing memory consumption. But this growth is slow and the problem is solved by restarting the zabbix-proxy daemon once a week. The reason is that zabbix_proxy processes increase the amount of memory consumed. They do not increase it much, but there are many processes> 1000.
We need one more proxy. We make an identical copy of the server with zabbix-proxy in AWS. Then we change names and databases in Zabbix-proxy settings and start.
Everything works as it should. But on this server, memory (128 GB) runs out in 5-6 hours. The reason is the same - zabbix_proxy processors increase memory consumption up to 512MB.
Zabbix version is 5.0.14. Everywhere.
Why is memory consumption soaring? Can this be reduced? We will be satisfied with the situation as on other servers with a weekly overflow.
