We have seen arserverd memory continues to increase in Solaris with both libumem or libc. We have tested this with ARS 7.5 and solaris 5.10 Our observation was arserverd daemon takes up some memory when a user issues a large query and will not release it to OS even after the query is complete. The next time another user issues any large query which requires more memory than it already has, it grabs more memory but will not release it to OS after the query is completed. With this behavior we have seen ARS memory footprint reaching 20+ GB over a few weeks at which point we had to restart ars to clean all the memory it grabbed or it eventually will crash.
Now I am working in windows, I do not see this happening. ARS always gets back to its original foot print after executing queries. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug12 www.wwrug12.com ARSList: "Where the Answers Are"
