Description of problem:
========================

On a scale cluster with 2000 nfs exports, while setting the bandwidth_control and ops_control limit at cluster level and export level, high memory utilization is observed.

Note : Only the limits were set and no IO's were performed on these exports.

How reproducible:
================
1/1


Steps to Reproduce:
===================
1. Create NFS Ganesha cluster

# ceph nfs cluster info nfsganesha
{
  "nfsganesha": {
    "backend": [
      {
        "hostname": "cali015",
        "ip": "10.8.130.15",
        "port": 12049
      }
    ],
    "monitor_port": 9049,
    "port": 2049,
    "virtual_ip": "10.8.130.200"
  }
}

2. Create 2000 NFS exports on 2000 subvolume

3. Set the cluster limits for bandwidth_control and ops_control

Cluster level settings →
----------------------
# ceph nfs cluster qos enable bandwidth_control nfsganesha PerShare --max_export_write_bw 2GB --max_export_read_bw 2GB

# ceph nfs cluster qos enable ops_control nfsganesha PerShare --max_export_iops 10000

4. Set the limits for 2000 exports as below

 --> Enable the bandwidth_control for 2000 exports as below
-----------------------------------------------------------

1-500 exports → 
# for i in $(seq 1 500);do ceph nfs export qos enable bandwidth_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_write_bw 1GB --max_export_read_bw 1GB; done 

501 -1000 exports → 
# for i in $(seq 501 1000);do ceph nfs export qos enable bandwidth_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_write_bw 2GB --max_export_read_bw 2GB; done

1001 - 1500 exports →
# for i in $(seq 1001 1500);do ceph nfs export qos enable bandwidth_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_write_bw 3GB --max_export_read_bw 3GB; done

1501 - 2000 exports →
# for i in $(seq 1501 2000);do ceph nfs export qos enable bandwidth_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_write_bw 4GB --max_export_read_bw 4GB; done

 --> Enable the ops_control for 2000 exports as below
-----------------------------------------------------
# for i in $(seq 1 500);do ceph nfs export qos enable ops_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_iops 10000; done

# for i in $(seq 501 1000);do ceph nfs export qos enable ops_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_iops 12000; done

# for i in $(seq 1001 1500);do ceph nfs export qos enable ops_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_iops 14000; done

# for i in $(seq 1501 2000);do ceph nfs export qos enable ops_control nfsganesha /ganeshavol$i --max_export_iops 16000; done


# ceph nfs export info nfsganesha /ganeshavol1800
{
  "access_type": "RW",
  "clients": [],
  "cluster_id": "nfsganesha",
  "export_id": 1800,
  "fsal": {
    "cmount_path": "/",
    "fs_name": "cephfs",
    "name": "CEPH",
    "user_id": "nfs.nfsganesha.cephfs.2c1043d4"
  },
  "path": "/volumes/ganeshagroup/ganesha1800/fc57d302-43b7-44cb-8461-d69f46b0323a",
  "protocols": [
    3,
    4
  ],
  "pseudo": "/ganeshavol1800",
  "qos_block": {
    "combined_rw_bw_control": false,
    "enable_bw_control": true,
    "enable_iops_control": true,
    "enable_qos": true,
    "max_export_iops": 16000,
    "max_export_read_bw": "4.0GB",
    "max_export_write_bw": "4.0GB"
  },
  "security_label": true,
  "squash": "none",
  "transports": [
    "TCP"
  ]
}

Actual results:
===============
The NFS process was observed to be consuming 31.1 GB of memory. At the time, no exports were mounted on any clients, and no I/O operations were being executed.


Expected results:
=================
The NFS process should utilize a significantly lower amount of memory, especially when no exports are mounted on clients and no I/O operations are running
