Hey guys,

    I have a pretty simple question.  What is the expected memory usage for 
a simple playbook that performs a yum install or an rpm and pushes a config 
file?

Ansible Host Data:
   Architecture type: VMware
   Memory: 24GB
   CPU: x4 > 2.3 Ghz
   OS RHEL 7.1
Hosts: 
  400 RHEL 5 and 6 servers 

Ansible Config:
      Settings = Defaults with 10 Forks

Ansible Playbook:
       I could really be anything!  We have tried just a ping!

We see that if run any playbook that we eventually consume all of the 
systems memory and oom-kill kicks in and kicks the ansible-playbook running.

Is this normal behavior?  Is there something simple in tuning that I am 
missing?  
The tower guide suggests 4gb per 100Fork.
I read through the scaling guide, and it didn't mention anything for memory 
tuning.

Any thoughts or criticisms would be GREATLY appreciated.   I love me some 
ansible and I want to start handing off large jobs to our operations team 
soon!
Thanks in advance!
