Dave,We found the issue.  I thought you might like to know.  After continuous 
polling of the agent we saw it die in the TCP mib.  I was able to correlate 
that to a weblogics server on the box that isn't cleaning up its connections 
and leaving idle connections lying around.    When the net-snmp agent hit the 
soft file descriptor limit it would immediately start chewing up memory.  It 
would go as high as 4gb and then leave a core file.With the weblogics server 
stopped there is no increasing idle connections and thus there is no more 
memory being used.   Out of the 2181 polls we did last night the agent stayed 
running at the exact same size.Do you know if the newer versions of net-snmp 
handle soft limits better?Jayson> Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 09:09:36 +0100> From:
