I just noticed this on one of our Bacula servers. Curious since the SD
shouldn't be using much memory at all from what I know of it.
OS is FreeBSD 6.1-RC.
Yes, but much more important is what version of Bacula are you using?
Latest, 1.38.8.
OK, in previous versions it was remotely possible that could happen in some
bizarre cases, but in 1.38.x Bacula does a garbage collection once a day
releasing unused pooled buffers, so it shouldn't happen.
I'd recommend that you ensure that the line #define DEVELOPER 1 is not
commented out in the file src/version.h, then rebuild and reinstall your
binaries. When you run them, redirect output to some log file somewhere, and
then if you notice large memory usage, simply stop the daemon and see what is
printed in the output. If there is nothing, then the problem is not with
Bacula as *all* Bacula's memory using is tracked and reported if it is not
released when the daemon stops. In that case, the problem will be in one of
the libraries linked in -- e.g. sqlite, or the MySQL or PostgreSQL client
libraries.
Ok, I'll keep an eye on it.
Thanks Kern.

Thanks,
Dominic
After restarting the SD I am back to the more reasonable:
60159 bacula 3 20 0 4364K 2212K kserel 0:00 0.00% bacula-sd
Presumably this is being caused by a memory leak somewhere. Anyone else
on FreeBSD observed this occuring?
Cheers,
Dominic
