Hi Abdalla,
What areaDetectors plugins do you have running and what is the value of QueueSize for each of them? The Buffers information you sent is very useful. It says that the current number of buffers (NDArrays) in use is only 22. But it has allocated 24664 of them,
and they are in the pool, using 28904 MB of memory. Can you send a screen shot of the commonPlugins.adl screen?
I can think of two possibilities for this:
Note that in the Buffers section of the detector screen there is button to Empty Free List. That processes the EmptyFreeList record, which will free all of
the unused buffers and reduce the memory without restarting the IOC.

I have setup area detector to control the Basler gigE cameras we have, I pulled the latest tag for all the necessary modules (asyn, ADCore, ADAravis, etc). The setup works fine, I can control the camera and acquire images even at the maximum FPS which is 32. Now I configured the IOC to control 2 cameras, one with exposure time 10 s and one with 32 FPS and left it overnight few days ago. I got to the PC the day after and the RAM and swap were full but the IOC was working, I managed to login to the PC later and launched the GUI and I found strange values in the Buffers section of ADAravis.adl:
PoolUsedBuffers: 22 PoolAllocBuffers: 24664 PoolFreeBuffers: 24642 PoolMaxMem: 0 MB PoolUsedMem: 28904.3
The PC has is running CentOS 7 and has 8GB RAM. I re-ran the IOC yesterday and for now it is working fine. What could be wrong with my setup? The network is all gigabit Ethernet and jumbo frames are enabled.
Thanks Abdalla.
