Hello John

I find a lot of such files on my server too. Splunk seems to be the
application using these files:

lsof |grep mongoc
splunkd    7953   root  mem       REG            144,223       4736
1428742688 /dev/shm/mongoc-7953
splunkd    7953   root  mem       REG         182,744689     165544    
156221 /opt/splunk/lib/libmongoc-1.0.so.0.0.0
splunkd    7954   root  mem       REG         182,744689     165544    
156221 /opt/splunk/lib/libmongoc-1.0.so.0.0.0
splunkd    8034   root  mem       REG            144,223       4736
1487472321 /dev/shm/mongoc-8034
splunkd    8034   root  mem       REG         182,744689     165544    
156221 /opt/splunk/lib/libmongoc-1.0.so.0.0.0
