Hello.

We use v3.7.11, replica 2 setup between 2 nodes + 1 dummy node for keeping volumes metadata.

Now we observe huge VSZ (VIRT) usage by glustershd on dummy node:

===
root 15109 0.0 13.7 76552820 535272 ? Ssl тра26 2:11 /usr/sbin/glusterfs -s localhost --volfile-id gluster/glustershd -p /var/lib/glusterd/glustershd/run/glustershd.pid -l /var/log/glusterfs/glustershd.log -S /var/run/gluster/7848e17764dd4ba80f4623aecb91b07a.socket --xlator-option *replicate*.node-uuid=80bc95e1-2027-4a96-bb66-d9c8ade624d7
===

that is ~73G. RSS seems to be OK (~522M). Here is the statedump of glustershd process: [1]

Also, here is sum of sizes, presented in statedump:

===
# cat /var/run/gluster/glusterdump.15109.dump.1465200139 | awk -F '=' 'BEGIN {sum=0} /^size=/ {sum+=$2} END {print sum}'
353276406
===

That is ~337 MiB.

Also, here are VIRT values from 2 replica nodes:

===
root 24659 0.0 0.3 5645836 451796 ? Ssl тра24 3:28 /usr/sbin/glusterfs -s localhost --volfile-id gluster/glustershd -p /var/lib/glusterd/glustershd/run/glustershd.pid -l /var/log/glusterfs/glustershd.log -S /var/run/gluster/44ec3f29003eccedf894865107d5db90.socket --xlator-option *replicate*.node-uuid=a19afcc2-e26c-43ce-bca6-d27dc1713e87 root 18312 0.0 0.3 6137500 477472 ? Ssl тра19 6:37 /usr/sbin/glusterfs -s localhost --volfile-id gluster/glustershd -p /var/lib/glusterd/glustershd/run/glustershd.pid -l /var/log/glusterfs/glustershd.log -S /var/run/gluster/1670a3abbd1eea968126eb6f5be20322.socket --xlator-option *replicate*.node-uuid=52dca21b-c81c-48b5-9de2-1ed37987fbc2

Those are 5 to 6G, which is much less than dummy node has, but still look too big for us.

Should we care about huge VIRT value on dummy node? Also, how one would debug that?

Regards,
  Oleksandr.
