I just saw your message. I will try with 2.4.10 and 2.4.13 and I will let
you know the results. What I can say now is that 1.2.4a works perfectly
(already 13 hours ) with kernel 2.4.8.

Ivan,

I'm certain that you will also have the same issues when running version 1.2.4a
on your particular system configuration.  Your problem is your linux kernel. 

There are serious paging issues in version 2.4.8.  From my experience versions
2.4.7 and 2.4.10 are stable while running ASPSeek.  Version 2.4.10 seems to
give better performance in general over 2.4.7.  Both 2.4.8 and 2.4.9 have quite
serious VM bugs which only seem to present when under high load.  Current
release is 2.4.13 although I'm sticking to 2.4.10 at this stage as I've heard
that releases .11 and .12 were also very buggy. 

I recommend that you first upgrade or downgrade your kernel, try running index
again and then get back to the list with the results.  I'm fairly certain you
will see your issues vanish, touch wood. 

Anyone else that is experiencing similar issues, please check your kernel
version.  If you are running one of those mentioned above, try an
upgrade/downgrade.


Regards,
Matt.
