Based on that info, it doesn't seem like you should be running into a problem 
with too many locks.  If you see the issue again, I would suggest gathering 
some info about lock usage from the clients.  The 
/proc/fs/lustre/ldlm/namespaces/*/lock_count file should tell you how many 
locks the client has for each target.  From that you should be able to get an 
idea of how many locks are on the OSS and see if that would account for the 
memory usage.
