Hello everyone,
I have some physical servers with LXD, running about 80 containers/VMs in each one. Some time ago I noticed a lot of repeated messages in syslog, in all servers. I already refreshed the snaps to last version, rebooted the servers and I keep seeing these messages:

# cat /var/log/syslog | grep "Started snap" | wc -l

Is this normal behavior or something that I should investigate further? I searched about this issue here and didn’t find anything, so I became concerned.
