<p>Hi,</p>
<p>We have been using varnish since more than a year for our
ecommerce site. <br>
</p>
<p>Current version is 4.1.8.</p>
<p>OS is Linux. RAM is 8GB. <br>
</p>
<p>I am observing that the varnish memory usage is increasing (right
now 7%) and so is resident memory usage increasing. <br>
</p>
<p>The storage being used is file:</p>
<p>-s file,/tmp/varnish/,${storage}</p>
<p>I am not sure about the reason for the increase in varnish memory
usage:</p>
<ul>
<li>Is there a way to limit the varnish memory usage?</li>
<li>How can I diagnose what is consuming memory?</li>
<li>Most of our web pages have maximum 2 days of cache. Also, some
of the pages might be least visited.</li>
<li>Is there a way to manipulate varnish mmap (when file storage
is used)?</li>
</ul>
<p>Would appreciate any help on the above for efficient use of
varnish.</p>
<p>Thanks,</p>
<p>Pinakee<br>
