High memory usage of fetcher process

Hello,

I’ve just got a warning about high memory usage of one of my CheckMk satellite servers.
Most of the memory is consumed by the CheckMk fetcher processes.
Another satellite server that monitores more than twice as much services consumes much less memory.
The difference is that the first server uses SNMP to monitor our network hardware while the latter makes use of the CheckMk agent.

Is this normal bahvior?

Regards,
Carsten

Due to its nature SNMP needs more resources on the monitoring server.
