      Same config.
      Alix APU2 with 2 GB of RAM

      2.4.4_p3
      Using 20% of 1870 MiB RAM

      2.4.5_1
      Using 70% of 1870 MiB RAM

      • Tested across many firewalls, same result, post upgrade, much higher RAM usage
      • No packages installed
      • Running ZFS file system
      • Tried rebooting, same high RAM usage

      See the screen shots below;

        It looks like a larger amount of RAM is taken up for paging, couild this be ZFS file system?
