It seems like data is still getting into the mem > tables. It means the aggregates that are already in the table will still get updated as new traffic comes in. But new aggregates will not make it into the memory structure. Under default settings, it's a protection mechanism to limit memory allocation. It can be fine tuned by reading the INTERNALS document or briefly worked around by configuring: imt_mem_pools_number: 0 If configuring such setting you still see the message above, it means the process is unable to allocate more memory from the system (either software or hardware limit).
