      Checking my system this morning after applying patch ff715efce5e6c65b3d49dc2da7e1bdc437ecbf12 and rebooting yesterday... Bliss! Nothing happened at 3 AM and my wired mem usage remains at about 35%. I consider this problem solved.

            Thanks

            dead on arrival, nowhere to be found.

                @jmv43-0 Install the System Patches package and use the patch ID.
                https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/development/system-patches.html

                Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
                When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

                  @steveits I didn't know that way, I used the fetch command on the CLI to bring the file and replace the original.

                  Thanks.

                    @machasachaira :) System Patches is relatively new (1-2 years), and a wonderful idea. Netgate publishes a list of Recommended patches for the version you're on. Updating that package updates the list of patches. Any patch with a commit ID can also be pulled in.

                        Applied this patch 2 days ago. Absolutely solved the 3am memory leak. However, dns broke on my sg 1100 the past two days. I had to restart the dns resolver service to restore dns. Anyone else experiencing this?

                          @mr-castoro There are a bunch of DNS threads lately.
                          If you have Resolver set to forward, ensure DNSSEC is unchecked.

                            @mr-castoro Have you restarted your SG after the patch update? I have not experienced any problems after rebooting.

                                @mr-castoro -- No problems with my SG-1100 and DNS but I use the "Forwarder" and not the "Resolver" and I point the Forwarder to my two Pi-hole IPs. Works great that way!

                                Also, instead of pointing it to a Pi-hole, you could just use: 9.9.9.9, 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 or some other external DNS.
