Subject: Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: pcied on the supervisor hogging memory

Hi, Prince,

It's a memory leak that causes the memory usage in pcied to grow over time. There are circular references that are not getting cleaned up by the Python garbage collector.

We are looking into this and trying to get a fix for this as soon as possible.

Thanks,
Patrick

Hi, Prince, 
 
We have reproduced the memory leak locally, so we can debug the issue on our local test setup.
 
Thanks,
Patrick

Before restart, should we debug on the live system … we may not be able to recreate later…

Hi, Arvind, 
 
We are currently looking into what the source of this memory leak may be.
 
In the meantime, it would be useful to obtain `/var/log/syslog*` and `/var/log/arista*` on the affected switch.
 
You should be able to recover the leaked memory by restarting the pcied service.
 
Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.
 
Thanks,
Patrick

Hi,
On the Arista 7808  chassis running SONiC, we are seeing an issue where the pcied process is hogging lot of memory on the supervisor module. Logs pasted below
I suspect there might be memory leak here. 
The device is still in this state, please let us know what logs we can collected to triage this issue.
We can also have debug session if needed.
