Yesterday, I recompiled with --disable-embedded-perl. Things still look o.k. this morning. Memory useage has slowly crept up to full utilization, with a tiny bit of swap being used. But the load averages and CPU idle are just where we want them. I just put an --enable-embedded-perl version into operation. Now wait some more to see if anything happens. I'm curious why embedding perl would exacerbate a perl memory leak. I'm not really understanding the mechanics of that. _________________________ Ron Peterson Network & Systems Manager Mt.
