memory problem
I have played around and it seems to be more of an issue with the
system itself. I am running 2.2r2 with kernel 2.2.18. This is a
failrly newly installed system, and what happens is that applications
don't release memory when they are done. I thought it was specific to
Webtrends Enterprise Reporting Server, which this server was built
for, but it seems to be anything. I rebooted the machine and watched
top. There was about 20 megs of RAM used. I ran in another shell
'updatedb' since I knew it wasn't a small quick thing. I watched
memory usage go up to almost 50 megs. When it finished, the memory
usage stayed the same, give or take a couple of megs. It is now
sitting steady at 48224K.
Why would this be? Thanks for any insight.
