_introspection shows wrong memory usage for the deployment server

Hi,

_introspection reports a higher value for existing memory than the real memory of the machine and also the memory used is wrong (and close to the fake max).

OS Tools report the real values which are way lower.

Any idea why and how to fix this? If I see this correctly, _introspection is fed by splunkd.

A reboot fixed this for now, but what should be done to prevent this from re-apperauing?

thx
afx
