Problem Note 69741: SAS® processes that use Kerberos credentials might experience a memory leak
 |  |  |  |  |
When an attempt to read a Kerberos credential fails, the memory that was allocated might not be freed, which results in memory consumption increasing for the process.
This issue could affect any SAS process that uses Kerberos tickets, such as the metadata server, object spawner, SAS® Workload Orchestrator, or a Base SAS® session.
To work around the issue, restart the process.
