Does anyone have advice on how to track down high memory usage with MD? I run between 10 and 25 slaves and they all consume about 25MB of memory at startup and during mail processing. After a while, _some_ of the slaves (anywhere from 1 to 4) jump to about 175MB of memory (snips from top below).

Any ideas are greatly appreciated! Thanks! -- Dave _______________________________________________ NOTE: If there is a disclaimer or other legal boilerplate in the above message, it is NULL AND VOID.
