We've recently seen a significant spike in memory utilization on our search heads ... Looking at the files opened by mongod I'm seeing info like this:

-rw------- 1 root root 16777216 Dec 7 16:37 s_SA-AccyUyi@longstring@.0
-rw------- 1 root root 33554432 Sep 15 20:58 s_SA-AccyUyi@longstring@.1

-rw------- 1 root root 536608768 Sep 19 23:32 s_SA-AccyUyi@longstring@.8
-rw------- 1 root root 536608768 Sep 19 23:31 s_SA-AccyUyi@longstring@.9 

Any idea why there are so many versions of some of these? ... shouldn't there typically only be a ".0" and a ".ns" file for each collection?

 

Thank you
