I think you might be experiencing ITS#7292. What do you think? If you
bring up a new server with the same configuration and an empty
database and allow it to start replicating, like in the ITS, do you
observe the same memory usage?

It was fixed upstream in 2.4.32 by a series of commits:

If it's easy for you to rebuild a package and deploy it in a testing
environment, you might try doing so with those changes integrated.

I tried to reproduce your report but wasn't successful yet. Is it
possible for you to reduce the testcase any further? For example, can
you still trigger it if you omit some of the overlays?
