It hangs for a long time on lib/Config................................ And...and I was going to copy and paste the same error message as I sent yesterday, but instead ssh hung up on me, and the console has the following bad news: swap_pager: out of swap space swap_pager_getwwapspace(16): failed ...sshd was killed ...out of swap space Top says it was a very big boy indeed while it was running: 17771 root 130 0 10732M 2470M CPU0 0 13:41 103.17% 103.17% perl I'm willing to do a binary package as a last resort, but I'm planning on building code on this box so it'd be better to get this resolved properly :) I'm going to try changing the perl MALLOC options. This machine has 8G of ram, are there still problems with large memory on amd64? Thanks for any help, Mike
