Hi,
I have this big Db running a number of innodb tables having tens of millions of rows. It has been running smoothly without problem and using a steady amount of memory for a long time.
We had an incident one day and when things came back up, users rush in and it loaded up the DB. The DB was using more memory than before since then. Even though the load got back to normal now, the DB is still taking up a lot of memory. It never retracted. I'm wondering if there's anything we can do to free up those memory other than restarting the DB?
