With the new kernel, free memory is continously decreasing at a high rate and the servers start swapping and finally OOMing services within days. With the 4.10 kernel, decrease of free memory is slower and stabilizes after a while. Latest kernel tested is linux-image-4.13.0-32-generic but the issue also affects older kernels from that series, tested back to linux- image-4.13.0-19-generic. No issue with linux-image-4.10.0-42-generic. The servers are running as OpenStack controller nodes using either Ocata or Pike UCA plus ceph. See attached graph for the memory behaviour.
