Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1547986
unqualified search on hostgroup uses large amount of memory
Last modified: 2018-05-21 16:17:14 EDT
Description of problem: If you have a large number of hostgroups, an unqualified hostgroup search may consume a large amount of memory. This bug has similar repro steps and symptoms to #1462350. The memory growth as not as severe as it was in 1462350 but can still OOM a system if there are enough passenger processes. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.2.14
Connecting redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/22642 from this bug
Moving this bug to POST for triage into Satellite 6 since the upstream issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/22642 has been resolved.
linking also second bug that does not cause such memory consumption but should be probably applied at the same time
Verified on satellite-6.2.15-1.0.el6sat.noarch, no significant spike recorded when doing an unqualified search on 300+ hostgroups
