Same with 0.3.0.5. Upgrading to 0.3.0.7 helped on most relays.

Dear all,
we are operating two exit nodes with each two tor processes out of Switzerland. The nodes worked quite stable until about 2-3 weeks ago.
Since then we experience frequent disruptions (Up to several times a day). This is caused by a significant rise in memory consumption by the tor processes and ends with a tor process being killed by the Linux Kernel:
May 22 00:30:43 tor2 kernel: [2257156.134100] Killed process 40964 (tor) total-vm:448088kB, anon-rss:0kB, file-rss:0kB
The systems are physical machines with Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS with 4 GB of memory. This was sufficient the last 2 years.
For more details a sample of this behavior is documented in a Ticket [1]. Tor project team is researching but until now no hints lead to an improvement.
Due to a tweet last week [2] and the follow up discussion with another operator I became suspicious that is not just just us having a problem rather it cloud be more common.
Therefore here the question to you all - do you experience some strange behavior like described in the ticket as well ?
Please let me know if so.
If not - maybe it is just an unfortunate coincidence and we will end up make a clean install of both server hoping the problem will go away.
best regards
Dirk
