I’ll try to get a smoking gun. How do you configure an explicit number of bytes with max-cache-size?
The manpage says: max-cache-size ( default | unlimited | <sizeval> | <percentage> ); but doesn’t explain the syntax of “sizeval”. I tried “1638M” but that doesn’t seem to have an effect. > On Jun 8, 2025, at 10:16 PM, Ondřej Surý <ond...@isc.org> wrote: > > I don't see anything wrong with the memory in the attached file - 13MB > doesn't seem to be causing any havoc. > > And it roughly matches what I am seeing here with fresh named instance on > 64-bit machine: > > $ smem -P name[d] > PID User Command Swap USS PSS RSS > 61387 ondrej /home/ondrej/Projects/bind9 0 9684 11944 18628 > > Can you send one when you think there's a runaway memory problem?
