Hello,
I have 2 ASA 5520's in active standby mode, they are on IOS 8.2(2) and have 512mb of memory.
For some reason the memory usage went from 70% to 85% at 4pm yesterday. When I look back at the the changes at that time all I did was add a subnet to a rule. I took the subnet back out of the rule today and the memory has remained the same.
Any ideas on when I can do please let me know.
Thanks

It is an involved process to find out exactly what process is consuming the memory.
I'd suggest opening a TAC case so we can collect "sh mem detail" a few times in 3 hours or so and then sh mem binsize <> for the size that has consumed the most memory and then decode output value and match it to a process.
Do you have threat detection enabled? This is known to consume memory. Issue "sh run threat". To disable it copy and paste the lines with a "no" in front of it.
Then watch the mem and see if it goes down.
