The miner progressively shows/detects less and less memory for detected GPUs
When the miner starts it shows 8148 MB for each card, and it goes all the way down to 1000 MB per card. This can happen in an hour or in 12 hours. Stopping and restarting the miner fixes the problem.

OS: Ubuntu 16.04.1
AMD drivers: 16.30
All cards are ASUS ROG STRIX-RX480-8G-GAMING

Has anyone else experienced this?
@Claymore: Could it be that you are not releasing GPU memory between internal miner restarts?

Memleak when it fucks up. Then it restarts itself to hog more memory with the second copy of the DAG.

yes, definitely sounds like a memory leak to me.

grab some paper towels and check your motherboard/ram slots particularly, hopefully its not so bad that you are leaking underneath the rig too.

once i had stacked a couple rigs, like bunk beds you know.. so i could utilize the same 24" box fan for 14 gpu's.. and the top rig memory leaked all over the rig underneath it.. huge mess.

who would have thought all that fluid fits in such small semiconductors?

man i wish ram just ran on smoke like cpu's do..

Umm ... thats not what Wolf0 was referring to, memory leak means the program is unable to release memory it no longer is using causing memory usage to spike way above usual levels.
What you are talking about is thermal compound leaking oil or something.
