It seems the issue is now resolved. Cluster has been stable for about 18 hours, and heap is no longer running away. Ill keep an eye on it for a few days/weeks and will follow up one more time with findings, once i release a lot of my super aggressive curator policies and the data volume on the cluster incrases.

I'm curious, how much data to you have on disk? I saw 28G above, so 14G per node?

Thanks
