Could you show the output of `ps aux` inside the container? Also note that GitLab Omnibus will add more Unicorn processes the more available RAM it has in the system. You can turn off that automatic scaling by lowering the number of processes via https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/unicorn.html.

Thanks for the reply, here's my late response. I've pasted the output of ps aux here https://gist.github.com/maedoc/1f6e568d44541d7734204d294c98a..., though now it seems to have dropped significantly. The only change I seemed to have made that could account for that is moving from a local disk storage to NFS storage, maybe there's some caching accounting effect..
