@running-g it is expected that the more connections you have, the more Erlang processes there will be on a node. We don't have a lot of information to work with here. Your clients may be leaking connections or creating a high connection churn scenario.

What has changed in 3.8.6 is rabbitmq/rabbitmq-mqtt#235, which means MQTT client connections that could fail to be accepted with 3.8.5, would be accepted with 3.8.6.

See server logs for clues and what client IDs are used by said connections. A traffic capture would provide a lot of highly relevant information as well.
