When I posted the note, the usage was up to 608K. This morning it was up to 8xxK, and right now it is 928K. I expect it to be over 1Mb in the morning. This is on a machine with 256Mb RAM and 256Mb swap. It shouldn't ever even need to touch swap, and with an Oct 23 kernel, never did. A Dec 18 kernel (ELF or AOUT) seems to keep growing. The machine isn't doing anything different nightly that it wasn't doing before, namely nightly "make -j8 buildworld". Any thoughts on where to start looking in the code for this? At least I know the timeframe in which to look (Oct23-Dec18), unless someone can narrow it further.
