One of the node had about 27000+ ONS processes, sharing the same parent process, after the parent was killed everything went normal. Now the processes are evenly distributed however I see the ONS processes are starting to build up on one of the node again.. I am still troubleshooting why the ONS processes are building up on one of the nodes.
