Public bug reported:

nova-compute memory grows to 3gb in a Scaled environment (5000 vm) where
continuous VM operations were executed for 72 hours.

To test the memory leak we created and deleted same number of vms for some 
iterations. Here is the data .

When analysed with objgraph, it showed that suds library objects occupied most 
of the memory.
