Memory leak in FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE?! Content-Type: text/plain; charset=koi8-r Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hello, All! I need your help! Sorry me if my English will be bad. ;-) I had installed FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE on the mainboard ACORP 5VX32 (chipset INtel 430VX, DIMM 64M, CPU is AMD K5-133) ... and have the problem. I noted that FreeBSD is to be hanged after 1-2 days. This machine are working in idle rate. I begin to watch for memory. I was runing the script which was logging the top's output and ps's output. And what i noted: Memory in 1:59:00 (1:59am) ----------------- last pid: 4764; load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 01:59:00 27 processes: 1 running, 26 sleeping Mem: 6788K Active, 2840K Inact, 9164K Wired, 4877K Buf, 43M Free ^^^^^^ Memory is OK Swap: 120M Total, 64K Used, 120M Free ----------------- Memory in 2:00:00 ----------------- last pid: 4781; load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 02:00:00 31 processes: 3 running, 28 sleeping Mem: 7136K Active, 2840K Inact, 9308K Wired, 4926K Buf, 43M Free Swap: 120M Total, 64K Used, 120M Free ----------------- Memory in 2:01:00 ------------------ last pid: 4841; load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 02:01:00 37 processes: 1 running, 36 sleeping Mem: 13M Active, 3156K Inact, 12M Wired, 7158K Buf, 33M Free ^^^^ Swap: 120M Total, 64K Used, 120M Free ------------------- Memory in this time has grown through 13 Mb. In this time /etc/daily was working... The memory after 6 hours stays on 13-16 Mb! Memory in 11:23 ------------------- last pid: 8643; load averages: 0.03, 0.01, 0.00 11:23:00 27 processes: 1 running, 26 sleeping Mem: 17M Active, 3180K Inact, 13M Wired, 7667K Buf, 29M Free Swap: 120M Total, 64K Used, 120M Free ------------------- I did not find a processes those were using a more memory! I made the conclusion that a memory leak is in kernel! I tried with other mainboard (Chipset Inte 437VX, SIMM 16 Mb) this hard with FreeBSD but memory was stable on 7-8Mb against the 17M at 11:23 (see above) Help me! Did anyone know what is problem?!
