Hi everyone,

I’m facing a recurring high memory usage issue on a FortiGate 71F running 7.4.8, and I’m hoping someone here has seen this before or can point me in the right direction.
Memory gradually climbs throughout the day.
URL Filter seems to be the primary contributor

Has anyone experienced memory creep or high memory usage related to the URL Filter process on 7.4.8?
And what would you recommend doing next?
