Excellent, thanks a lot for your report Hank ! BTW if you're running with many concurrent connections causing that amount of memory to be consumed, you may want to try to build with dlmalloc (check the makefile for that). It makes extensive use of mmap() and is able to release lots of unused memory, more than the libc's malloc. This is particularly appreciated during soft restarts, when you need to make two processes coexist. Regards, Willy
