High memory usage

Hi

I have a 4TB thick drive with 12GB or ram cache allocated. Star wind starts off using ~20gb of ram which is fine.
On one of the nodes the ram usage grows to over 100GB.
Starwind 8.0.0.11456

Any ideas?
Is it possible to cap the memory usage?

StarWind requires less memory than 100GB, that is for sure. The usual memory consumption is RAM cache size + some memory for the service itself, but this is much less than the situation described.

It seems to only be when the drives are synchronizing.

Even when synchronizing, this figure looks not really usual. Have you been able to reproduce this issue?
