Ah, gracias. Hmm. btraceback was installed in /usr/sbin/, it seems.  
(I wonder why it doesn't try to find it via $PATH?)  I'll make a  
symlink and see if any useful data occurs next time.

It happened before on the previous server, and I toned down the  
concurrent jobs (to no effect)... I don't know what it could be doing  
which would exhaust it. The machine in question has 2GB of memory and  
4GB of swap. Futhermore, it's a recent addition to the flock that  
still needs more stuff installed, so the only thing it's doing now is  
SD tasks.

Do you have any suggestions of things to check which may be causing  
excessive memory usage? I can't think of anything off the top of my  
head that the SD would be doing which could necessitate using that  
much, assuming that it's main task is Network and Disk I/O bound  
rather than manipulating any large complex data structures, etc.

Thanks,
