HI Engineers, Would you able to explain to me why we are reaching 73% of memory and could it possible to decrease the consumption of the memory? Regards Aaron

    Watching for resolution. I have a similar issue with High Memory and/or CPU causing Conserve Mode events. I do have  a ticket open with CS, but extra eyes on something never hurts.

    Running an HA pair of 240D, firmware 5.4.4, build 1117.

    Sorry - just realized that the original post is from 2014. Doubt that I will see resolution here.

    240D only has 2gb I believe of RAM so that's not much. Make sure to have UTM policies on the bottom you may also consider upgrading to a bigger box.

    FG-240D has 4 GB of RAM. I'd say that is ample.

    Something else is causing the high consumption - maybe an update process running wild after a signature update, or an engine update.

    Reboot doesn't help?

    the older FortiOS had some memory leak issues. Every device I have had that has experienced this has been resolved as we progressed through FortiOS versions
