Mar 1 at 00;36 AM we noticed that redis server stopped evicting.

We have redis instance running for 79 days with eviction policy set eviction_policy = "allkeys-lru"

After midnight on Mar 1, evictions stopped and memory usage started to grow. Redis server v=7.0.12 sha=00000000:0 malloc=jemalloc-5.2.1 bits=64 build=d380b1e39e05516d

Steps to reproduce the behavior and/or a minimal code sample.

    self.handle = redis.Redis(
        host=host,
        port=port,
        password=password,
    )

    self.handle.config_set("maxmemory", mem_capacity)

    # Set the eviction policy
    eviction_policy = "allkeys-lru"
    self.handle.config_set("maxmemory-policy", eviction_policy)

A description of what you expected to happen.

Evictions continues
