Hi, we’ve noticed there is a huge ovn-controller memory consumption introduced with [0] comparing to version without its changes in ovn-controller.c part (just OVS submodule bump without ovn-controller changes doesn’t trigger such behaviour).
On an empty host connected to working cluster ovn-controller normally consumes ~175 MiB RSS, and the same host updated to a version with commit [0] consumes 3.3 GiB RSS. The start time and CPU consumption during process start of an affected version is higher that for the normal version. Before upgrade (normal functioning): #ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller memory/show ;ps-mem -p $(pidof ovn-controller)| grep ovn idl-cells-OVN_Southbound:343855 idl-cells-Open_vSwitch:14131 ofctrl_desired_flow_usage-KB:76 ofctrl_installed_flow_usage-KB:60 ofctrl_sb_flow_ref_usage-KB:18 174.2 MiB + 327.5 KiB = 174.5 MiB ovn-controller After upgrade to an affected version I’ve checked memory report while ovn-controller was starting and at some time there was a bigger amount of OVN_Southbound cells comparing to "after start" time: during start: # ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller memory/show ;ps-mem -p $(pidof ovn-controller)| grep ovn idl-cells-OVN_Southbound:11388742 idl-cells-Open_vSwitch:14131 idl-outstanding-txns-Open_vSwitch:1 3.3 GiB + 327.0 KiB = 3.3 GiB ovn-controller after start: # ovn-appctl -t ovn-controller memory/show ;ps-mem -p $(pidof ovn-controller)| grep ovn idl-cells-OVN_Southbound:343896 idl-cells-Open_vSwitch:14131 idl-outstanding-txns-Open_vSwitch:1 3.3 GiB + 327.0 KiB = 3.3 GiB ovn-controller cells during start: 11388742 cells after start: 343896 I guess it could be connected with this problem. Can anyone look at this and comment please? 0: https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn/commit/1b0dbde940706e5de6e60221be78a278361fa76d Regards, Vladislav Odintsov _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
