Subject:   INN 1.7.2 eating huge gobs RAM and crashing 2.2.6
Message-ID:  <3.0.2.32.19980417065518.02797100@sentex.net>

I dont know if others see this or not, but every 2 days or so I need to
restart innd because it eats up huge amounts of swap. If I let it go, it
will spin out of control, and crash the machine.  I was just about to
reboot it when I took this snap shot.

I have the kernel config set to 128 users, its a p133 with 128meg of RAM
and 2.2.6-STABLE as of a last week. Does anyone have any idea what might be
the cause of this ?
