    Description

      when we review the memory usage in the production, there is something abnormal, ie, looks like TS take much memory than index data + common system waste, and here is some memory dump result by set "proxy.config.dump_mem_info_frequency"

      1, the one on a not so busy forwarding system:
      physics memory: 32G
      RAM cache: 22G
      DISK: 6140 GB
      average_object_size 64000

           allocated      |        in-use      | type size  |   free list name

      this box will crash every 2days, so the memory waste may no that high

      2, our production reverse system:
      physics memory: 16G
      RAM cache: 8G
      DISK: 1516 GB
      average_object_size 16384
      and it run for a much long time:
