      hi i have installed my pfsense but i am facing multiple problems. That's why I ask so many questions. do not worry.

      I have 24gb ram on my pfsense device. and while it was around 20% when I first turned on the system, it increased to 82% after 2-3 days.
      what would be the reason?

      Version 2.6.0

      installed packages:
      -2 Wans
      -dns resolver
      -pfblockerng 5-6 list
      -A total of around 20 firewall rules for all vlans.
      -about 100 users
      -ntopng
      -Snort (connection mode)
      -6 Vlans
      -openvpn profile 5

        Its probably in context of this:

        Memory Leak

        Memory Usage

        As far as I read it should be fixed for CE 2.7.0 and PF+ 22.05 ...

        SSD: SanDisk pSSD-S2 16GB (ZFS) WiFi: WLE200NX
        pfsense 2.8.0 CE
        Packages: Apcupsd, Cron, Iftop, Iperf, LCDproc, Nmap, pfBlockerNG, RRD_Summary, Shellcmd, Snort, Speedtest, System_Patches.
