Hello,

I'm running Kibana 4.4.0 on a Linux Debian :  
`3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.57-3 x86_64 GNU/Linux`  
The VM has 500MB of RAM, one VCPU.

I installed Kibana from this repo :  
`deb http://packages.elastic.co/kibana/4.4/debian stable main`

Java version is :  
`java version "1.7.0_95" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.4) (7u95-2.6.4-1~deb7u1) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.95-b01, mixed mode)`

Every day Kibana seems to crash, I don't have much logs to try to understand what's happening.  
The node process continuatly increase in RAM until it reach around 90%

22087 kibana 20 0 793m 240m 8296 S 0.7 **48.3** 0:28.03 node  
22087 kibana 20 0 801m 247m 8296 S 0.3 **49.8** 0:28.75 node

I heard about memory leaks and node process, is it a known issue ?  
Anybody knows a workaround ?  
Maybe Kibana need more memory to run in production ?

[EDIT]  
I double the virtual machine available RAM (512 -\> 1024MB) the issue is still present.
