[Gluster-users] gluster connection interrupted during transfer

Hello Richard,

Thank you for the logs.

I am wondering if this could be a different memory leak than the one
addressed in the bug. Would it be possible for you to obtain a statedump of
the client so that we can understand the memory allocation pattern better?
Details about gathering a statedump can be found at [1]. Please ensure that
/var/run/gluster is present before triggering a statedump.

Regards,
Vijay
