With settings like this:
ifc='enp2s0f0 enp2s0f1 enp2s0f2 enp2s0f3 enp3s0f0 enp3s0f1 enp3s0f2 
enp3s0f3'
for i in $ifc
         do
         ethtool -C $i adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 512 
tx-usecs 128
         ethtool -K $i gro on
         ethtool -K $i tso on

         done

Server is leaking about 4-6MB per each 10 seconds
MEMLEAK:
5  MB/10sec
6  MB/10sec
4  MB/10sec
4  MB/10sec


Other settings TSO/GRO off
ifc='enp2s0f0 enp2s0f1 enp2s0f2 enp2s0f3 enp3s0f0 enp3s0f1 enp3s0f2 
enp3s0f3'
for i in $ifc
         do
         ethtool -C $i adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 512 
tx-usecs 128
         ethtool -K $i gro off
         ethtool -K $i tso off

         done

Same leak about 5MB per 10 seconds
MEMLEAK:
5  MB/10sec
5  MB/10sec
5  MB/10sec


Other settings rx-usecs change from 512 to 1024:
ifc='enp2s0f0 enp2s0f1 enp2s0f2 enp2s0f3 enp3s0f0 enp3s0f1 enp3s0f2 
enp3s0f3'
for i in $ifc
         do
         ethtool -C $i adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 1024 
tx-usecs 128
         ethtool -K $i gro off
         ethtool -K $i tso off

         done

MEMLEAK:
4  MB/10sec
3  MB/10sec
4  MB/10sec
4  MB/10sec


So memleak have something to do with rx-usecs (less interrupts but 
bigger latency for traffic)


But also enabling TSO/GRO making leak about 1MB bigger for each 10 seconds
