Description

I have a burrow setup done using docker. It's getting offsets for 2 clusters (2.0 and 0.8). The memory consumed by the burrow is increasing continuously. To the point that I had to setup a cron to periodically kill and restart the process. Screenshots attached.

Please let me know what all data I need to provide?

Note: It's the same case with both docker and standalone.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the increasing memory use in both the Docker and standalone setups while Burrow monitors the two reported Kafka clusters. Compare the behavior over time and collect the relevant runtime data requested by the issue; done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that memory no longer grows continuously.
