Not known to me. Seems to "obviously" be a memory leak in the kernel you're using. I'd report a bug against centos. It will help if you can whittle the test down to a small script, which might be possible with something like cat > breakme.sh << EOF #!/bin/sh for i in `seq 1 50`; do (lxc-unshare -s NETWORK -- sleep 10) & pid=$! ip link add type veth peer name xxx ip link set xxx netns $! done sleep 10 cat /proc/meminfo EOF ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ See everything from the browser to the database with AppDynamics Get end-to-end visibility with application monitoring from AppDynamics Isolate bottlenecks and diagnose root cause in seconds.
