Hi
I am running Puppet version 2.7.18-5 with around ~ 100 nodes syncing with
the server with the defaults of half an hour. Is it normal for the
puppetmaster service to take around ~ *3GB* of RAM.
# cat /etc/debian_version

# dpkg --list | grep -i puppet

Now let me stop my puppetmaster to show that memory is in fact getting
freed up.
