Hey,
I was trying to help a user with increased memory after upgrade to 2.5 and we looked into typical offenders like NICs or facts. But recent patches did not solve the problem, it looks like there are hosts with many (900) puppet smart class params overrides:

Can someone familiar with the codebase look into this? There might be a memory leak introduced recently. Thanks!
Not even the patch for settings https://github.com/theforeman/foreman/pull/8834 helped there?
I’m not sure if this was released in 2.5.
I am the user in question with the memory usage problem - and no, I applied that patch but it had no effect on memory usage in my environment.

I wonder if this post is related:
Over time I see that the foreman instance has spun up a bunch of httpd threads in one of our instances, and as a result all other requests stop working, resolving (api and UI) until the http threads are purged or the services are restarted. Been pounding my head against this since our upgrade to 2.5 from 2.2 (which was using passenger, and now with 2.5 using puma) I can roll back to 2.2 and the problem does not occur, yet with all the versions of 2.5 so far (up to 2.5.4) this keeps happening.
