Hi We have solr 6.2.1. One of the collection is causing lots of updates. We see the next logs:
/INFO org.apache.solr.core.SolrDeletionPolicy : SolrDeletionPolicy.onCommit: commits: num=2 commit{dir=/opt/solr-6.2.1/server/solr/collection_shard1_replica2/data/index,segFN=segments_qbmv,generation=1228135} commit{dir=/opt/solr-6.2.1/server/solr/collection_shard1_replica2/data/index,segFN=segments_qbmw,generation=1228136}/ As a result we are running out of memory in the instances hosting the collection. The used memory is increased by 1 percent per day. The used memory is not part of the Solr's JVM, but part of the Slab memory (which I get to know now :) ) when cat over /proc/meminfo we get: / Slab: 17906760 kB SReclaimable: 17841548 kB / and slabtop gives: 91635138 91635138 6% 0.19K 4363578 21 17454312K dentry ~17 GB for dentry. Is there any way to avoid this "memory leak"? echo 2 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches ; sync is cleaning the this "clean" cache but - 1. Either from the OS side or from the solr collection side? 2. What's the meaning of the SolrDeletionPolicy logs we get? do we commit lots of updates? deletes?
