Hi I am running Solr 3.5 server with a master-slave and repeater-slave architecture from last one year on linux machines. Recently found out that my slaves (both) are using high virtual memory and keeps on increasing while master and repeater both seems normal. My index size is quite normal in all 4 instances which is 5gb in filesystem . I am running optimize on master every midnight .
I think the problem could be Solr is deleting the old files but could not release the open handlers to the deleted files so that it keeps on increasing the virtual memory on linux . One thing i dont understand why this only happens with slaves only. any solution for this ? Do we need to make a service restart each time so that the process can free those memory and obsolete handlers ?
