      Multiple tests are seeing a cluster of apparently related symptoms:

      • During the last portion of a checkpoint cache usage grows to well above the configured maximum
      • Operations stall, probably as a result of cache exceeding maximum
      • The WiredTigerLAS.wt file grows without bound, and circumstantial evidence related to the use of the WT lookaside cache connects this with the previous two symptoms.
      • FTDC data capture stalls

      Three examples from two different apps:
