Description

I've discovered in my Ceph cluster that the MDS overtime will leak memory. In my case it usually takes a week two or to notice and after two months eventually the machine will kill the MDS server (OOM killed). It looks like this only happens on the standby (stanby-active) MDS, I haven't observed such leaks on the primary. If I switch which one is the standby MDS (due to a version bounce, or restart due to OS fixes) then that machine's MDS starts leaking.

I'm currently running Firefly but this issue has been present for a long time (Dumping & Emperor).
