While debugging some memory issues with out application, we noticed that our RoutingService was reporting an ever-increating value for its periodic "physical memory" metric.
Figured we were configuring something wrong (with history, or lifespan, etc.)
But, if I run up a fairly plain RoutingService via the RTI Launcher (based off of the "DefaultDomainRoute" included in the "RTI_ROUTING_SERVICE.xml" shipped with RTI), I still see this metric increasing.
What's (possibly) even more interesting is that there are no other DDS applications running, other than Admin Console. So there shouldn't be any actual data being routed through the RoutingService.
