I have seen an issue with the LPRng-3.8.21 version. Since I installed this version, the main lpd process has been taking more and more memory. It initially started with about 7400k, but has since grown to 21M. With the 'fork exec' methodology that it uses, each new lpd process is also 21M with only 2400k resident memory usage. This is really starting to chew into my swap.
Last week the system actually ran out of swap when we had 127 print jobs and each lpd process was using over 30M. Is there a possible memory leak in this LPRng version? Can someone help me to substantiate this?
