Hello everybody,

I am contacting you because I am having a problem with one of my 3 
domain controllers.
I am having a problem with processes that keep adding up and eventually 
fill up the RAM memory .
I can't find anything in the logs that would allow me to determine why.
Here is an example:
(extract from htop)

I use Samba 4.10.17 on Debian Stretch
Do you have any idea where the problem may be coming from please?

Thank you for your help :-)
