Hi all,

I have recently updated the firmware on my Seagate NAS which included an
update to Samba. RAM usage on the system has jumped from <15% before the
update to >93% after. It appears Samba is using all the memory..

Here is a Top output - https://pastebin.com/33RJEmYG
Here is a Smbstatus output - https://pastebin.com/4xdpBevT



NAS has been mostly idle for ~12 hours now and I am seeing lots of
connections open still?

Sorry if this is a dupe email, I sent one a day or so ago but haven’t used
mail lists before so am unsure if it got through. Any input appreciated.



Thanks.
