This is more or less a FYI to those running 3.0.5p1 / 3.1.1 / 3.1.2.  If you 
have a busy master policy server running cf-serverd, or run cf-monitord on your 
client, I would advise checking the RAM usage of your long running daemons.

I performed an audit this morning of my clients who had cf-monitord running for 
6+ weeks.  I had over 1000 machines in production consuming 3gb+ of RAM on 
cf-monitord.  That is 3TB of total RAM wasted across our production platform.

I'm writing a policy that will restart these daemons daily until I have a 
chance to upgrade to 3.1.3.

$ ps -e -o comm,vsz,rss | grep cf

That will show you the RAM usage in kilobytes of the daemons.

Cheers
Mike
