Tom, Gustaf, All Yes, that happens even if the same page is requested. Could you tell me more about pre-queue filters?
The interesting thing is that I only see this memory leak issue on one of my servers. All servers run x86 Debian, though might be slightly differently dist-upgraded, Postgres version differs 7.4 vs 8.2 The website code itself, nsd config files are exactly the same on all servers. Over the weekend I tried to rebuild tcl, tcllib, xotcl, aolserver. The details how I did it can be found here http://alex-andr.org/notes/tiki-index.php?page=AOLServer+setup+with+XOTcl I used latest versions however, tcl 8.4.18, tcllib 1.10, xotcl 1.6.0 I even made a crude script that fetches the sources and builds a stand-alone aolserver installation, in order to make sure the build results are reproducible. http://alex-andr.org/notes/tiki-index.php?page=nsd+setup+script Still, even when all [hopefully] binaries are being copied to all servers, only one of them experience the same issue with huge memory leak on each page request. Any insightful thoughts? Thanks, ~ Alex. On Fri, Feb 29, 2008 at 6:23 PM, Tom Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Actually 2MB / request sounds like a massive memory leak.
