Varnich Memory in 90% holding continously

[sujith pv]

Thanks Adam. I assume we have compiled it ourself I need to look into as it
was done earlier. Also could you please let me know whats the fastest way
to clear the Varnish cache. Also here the surprising issue is that still
today being Varnish idle, why it is holding up the memory 90%. Whats the
way to release it manually.
