Hi,

If I have a lot of events fnordmetric can't keep up and the queue length keeps growing until eventually Redis is claiming all memory on the box. (queue length of 8 million). I'm not sure if the queue is the only reason to blame for Redis taking up so much memory, but maybe also data stored on the various metrics? (I'm not too sure of how everything is stored).

5.4G Redis, here is last log from fnordmetric:

events_received: 25300317, events_processed: 17397513, queue_length: 7901866
