Hi,
- There is only one, bidirectional vpn connection between project networks
in
two regions 2. there is no (or almost no) traffic on this vpn link 3. second region is on one host (kolla all-in-one) and situation looks the same- with vpn service enabled there is excessive Memory use (growing also about 5-6MB/ minute and forcing the system to use swapfile)
there is no big cpu usage (ofcourse also due to no traffic inside VPN) It's the same case even if there's no vpn connection configured. Best regards Adam Tomas Wysłane z iPhone'a

Hi Adam, Do you think the VPN connection is use CPU and memory to encrypt the VPN traffic?

everything
was ok at first. I was able to create VPN connection and communication is correct. But after a week of running vpnaas (only one VPN connection created/working!) I’ve noticed, that neutron-vpnaas takes more and more memory. I have 5 processes on each controller (there should be always five? Or it is changing dynamically?):

now neutron_server takes over 27G of RAM on each controller:
neutron_server running 10.2 27.2G
After stopping all neutron containers and starting it again neutron takes
a
lot less memory:
neutron_server running 0.5 583M
but memory usage keeps growing (about 5-6 M every minute). What’s wrong? When I disable vpnaas globally there’s no problem with excessive memory usage, so it’s vpnaas for sure…
