[Hari Gowtham]

Hi,

The reason for memory leak was found. The patch (
https://review.gluster.org/#/c/20437/ ) will fix the leak.
Should be made available with the next release. You can keep an eye on it.
For more info refer the above mentioned bug.

Regards,
Hari.

To temporarily resolve the high memory issue, I put hosts in maintenance then activate them back again. This indicates that the memory leak is caused from the gluster client. Ovirt is using fuse mounts.
