Splunk memory is used over 95%, and the max usage process is named [Splunk server] -- over 60%.

And the High Memory Usage is still keeping High-memory-usage from Aug 29th.
Also,  it seems be caused the Splunk server down. After I restarted it, the memory usage was coming to 95% soon.

Also, I see the Q&A following, and I think it's splunkd problem after researching. So I need your help to  solve splunkd problem.
