[Sophos UTM 9.000] High memory/swap usage

Appelsap
Hello,

See the screenshot below for a monthly view of our Sophos UTM memory usage.
I think that the swap and memory usage is verry high. After a reboot it is normal for a few days but grows up fast.
Is this a problem? We have 3.3gb memory.
CPU is normal around 15%

We have the following services enabled:
- Firewall
- Intrusion Prevention
- Web filtering
- Network visib.
- FTP & SMTP proxy
- Antivirus, antispam & antispyware

    That doesn't look bad, considering the features you have enabled.

    It is likely that 2-4 Snort processes are running (I think Astaro defaults to 1 per CPU core or maybe per CPU thread). 
    You can lower that if needed from the command line, but I don't think you need to right now.

    If the memory graphs aren't showing an increasing trend in RAM or SWAP usage, I wouldn't worry about it.

    Thanks Barry, I wont pay much attention to it.  On the plus side i do have some extra RAM that I am going to install so that its not sitting around collecting dust.
