When I realized that orig had consumed more time and space than no-
reread I killed it so I'm not sure where it would have peaked or how
much time it would have taken to reach that peak.

Err, according to your numbers, Peak RSS was larger for no-reread, so orig did _not_ consume greater max memory up to that point (I'm not claiming that it wouldn't). Peak VIRT is generally not indicative of actual memory usage.

Well, if you want to ignore VIRT, then the two versions come with in 10megs of each other out of almost 1GB, and yet orig was still running after 5 hours. I don't see how that can be preferred. I would also imagine the reason both versions don't use more RSS is because I only have 1GB of ram.

Thanks,
