In investigating an out of memory error on a Solaris 8 Sparc machine (compiled as a 32 bit executable), I find that the process size increase due to the cache does not make sense.
Over about a week the process size had grown to 257 MB, up from an initial size of 36 MB. But when I dumped the cache with rndc dumpdb -cache, the resulting named_dump.db file was only 6 MB in size. Given the way the file is formatted, I would expect that the in memory version would be smaller than that. But when I did a 'rndc flush', the process stopped growing for about the same number of days that it took to reach 257 MB. That indicates that the increase in process size really is due to the cache. The increase in process size from 36 MB to 257 MB does not make sense given that the cache dump is only 6 MB.
