Hi Team,
Configured HAProxy for bunch of web servers. It was working smoothly until
one fine day I found that on the server where haproxy is running memory
utilisation is getting high everyday. Biggest chunk in the memory
consumption is in slab_cache which is utilising 90% to 95% of total memory.
Server started using Swap and performance degraded.
Running Below configuration
OS - Debian 6.0.4 squeeze
RAM - 6GB
CPU - Pentium D 3.00GHz
HAProxy - HA-Proxy version 1.4.19 2012/01/07

Have a nice time,
