Description Albin Gustavsson 2018-11-08 10:16:25 UTC 
We are experiencing a memory leak in nagios, the nagios process will grow into several gigabytes of RSS slowly over time, eventually needing to be restarted.

Symptoms for us matches with the issue in the nagioscore upstream, and the it seems to be solved in 4.4.0+. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nagios-4.3.4-5.el7

How reproducible:
Always for me 

Steps to Reproduce:
Leave the nagios daemon running over time, memory usage growth should be visible after several days/weeks.

Actual results:
Memory usage of the nagios process grows slowly.

Expected results:
The nagios process memory usage should remain at reasonable levels.
