Enabling tracer for APIs stores cache every two hours post startup. This may cause spikes in memory usage, leading to API Gateway availability issues. To resolve this issue, upgrade to 10.15 Fix 6 or latest available fixes. If you are in a fix level below 10.15 Fix 6, use the tracing functionality cautiously; disable when it is not required. For extended tracing and an improved Gateway performance, upgrade to 10.15 Fix 6 or latest available fixes.
