@steveits It worked after the patch. I had already rebooted and tried a few other things, and let it even sit for several days to see it it would drop. Using top it would always have the High memory usage. After that patch, the reboot it has not hit 30% memory usage yet. I feel more confident adding rules and such now. I do believe the patch corrected this issue for me, as I was up to date, at least the system said I was, and I had purchased this netgate 1100 only a couple weeks ago. Thanks again!
