Dear Neil, thanks for your answers and the great job you are doing for all of us mdraid-users.

Dear readers, =20 seems like memory is leaking when a RAID10-array is reshaped.Only in Linux 3.14. You need commit cc13b1d1500656a20e41960668f3392dda9fa6e2 which is in v3.14.16 So even though you didn't tell me what kernel version you were using, I knew:-) (always report mdadm version and kernel version).
And of course you are right. In order to reshape our raid10-array I upgraded to mdadm 3.3 and the newest longterm kernel that was available. That was a couple of weeks ago and the newest 3.14.x kernel was 3.14.12 :-( Kind regards Peter Koch
