Hi!

I am currently experiencing a memory load problem with video playback.

here is the infrastructure :

client --> haproxy --> varnish --> moodle workers (x5)

a teacher uploaded a 400MB video to Moodle, when we start playing the 
video with browser player, Varnish consumes all the memory until it runs 
out and oom killer to kill varnishd.i have no configuration for mp4 
files in my vcl file, so by default they are not hidden (?). I can't 
find a solution :(

I can give my vcl file if necessary.

(I am a beginner on varnish :))

thank you for your support.

Karim
