Thanks for the feedback seems very strange that sshd was the first thing the

The box has runs several 200M+ process and more 100M+ where
as sshd is usually 6M.


 So this leads me to the questions:
 1. Any know issues ssh which could make it eat memory?
 2. Is there possibly a bug with the "large process detection"?

There is no "large process detection". The first process that tries to fault in a new page after the system runs out of swap gets killed.

From time-to-time, we talk about implementing some form of SIGDANGER, similar to what AIX has.
