rpc.lockd

Most likely - I noticed that I did not release the pages - but due to the
other error I was trying to figure out what kept the pages inactive without
releasing them. It rules out rpc.statd,

rpc.statd is always that size; you probably never noticed it before.  It
mmaps a 256MB window, but only uses a couple KB of it.
