Gluster storage node memory utilization graph

Description of problem:
  With the latest builds, memory utilization of tendrl-gluster-integration
  on one Gluster Storage server is growing to very high numbers.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
  Gluster Storage Server:
  Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.5 (Maipo)
  Red Hat Gluster Storage Server 3.4.0
  glusterfs-3.12.2-13.el7rhgs.x86_64
  glusterfs-api-3.12.2-13.el7rhgs.x86_64

  glusterfs-events-3.12.2-13.el7rhgs.x86_64

  tendrl-gluster-integration-1.6.3-6.el7rhgs.noarch

How reproducible:
  I've spotted it on three different clusters from yesterday, but I'm not sure
  if it is 100% reproducible on every cluster.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Prepare, install and configure Gluster Storage Cluster
  (my environment: 6 storage nodes with 8GB RAM, 2GB Swap, 2vCPUs, 1-3 volumes).
2. Install and configure RHGS WA Server and RHGS WA Node Agents on Gluster
  Storage nodes.
3. Import Gluster Cluster into RHGS WA.
4. Let it running for couple of hours/one day.
5. Check memory consumed by tendrl-gluster-integration on all Gluster Storage
  Servers.
  # ps -p $(echo $(ps aux | grep [t]endrl-gluster-integration | awk '{print $2}') | sed 's/ /,/g') -o %cpu,%mem,cmd -h;


Actual results:
  On one Gluster Storage server in the cluster, tendrl-gluster-integration
  consumes huge amount of memory (more than 80% in my case).

  (second number is memory utilization)
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  # ps -p $(echo $(ps aux | grep [t]endrl-gluster-integration | awk '{print $2}') | sed 's/ /,/g') -o %cpu,%mem,cmd -h;
    9.0 82.8 /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/tendrl-gluster-integration
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Expected results:
  tendrl-gluster-integration should not consume such hight amount of memory.

Additional info:
  This problem was initially spotted, because of alert similar to this shown
  in RHGS WA:

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  Memory utilization on node gl2.example.com in ClusterA at 80.09 % and running out of memory
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  I've also attached graph of memory usage of the affected node.
