--- Comment #7 from Frank Ch. Eigler <fche at redhat dot com> --- Right, the linux kernel does not share enough memory consumption data in rusage, so you need to read /proc/self/statm or such and compare its snapshots. For memory release, it's not so much the size of the database that matters, but an amount of -activity- on the database before the release attempt. It's the memory allocation for temporary purposes (answering queries, adding data to the database during scans) that we'd be hoping to release. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
