That's really useful - thanks for that.
My Orbi (in AP mode) is using 567/874MB with an uptime of 19 days, which seems high but I'll monitor it over the next few days and see what it's up to.
The satellites are both hovering around the 320MB mark which seems OK. Interestingly one of my satellites has a "Hop Count" of 1 while the other one has a "Hop Count" of 255. I wonder what that's all about.
System has been working and completely stable since I upgraded to 4.6.7.5... 19 days ago I guess.

As an aside (and it's probably not firmware-specific), I worked this one out. The satellite that had a Hop Count of 255 was connected to a network switch. I've reconfigured the setup so the satellite is the first item in the chain and the switch (with all other devices connected to it) is connected to the satellite. Now the Hop Count shows as 1 - and I'm pretty sure the satellite is more responsive too. We do a lot of latency-sensitive things on our network (Citrix sessions, video calls, streamed gaming via GeForce Now) and the overall experience seems smoother than it was before.

May depend on brand and model of switch as well.
I have 1 RBS thats at the end of a 3 switch daisy chain.
