Hi Stuart, I will try your suggested mod. So far, I have tried reinstalling the net-snmp-5.7.2 package configuring it with --disable-snmptrap-subagent and --with-out-mib-modules=notification_log_mib and that seems to have helped to either slow down the memory leak or eliminated it. I have now also applied the mod you suggested and will let it run for a while. I still see very small memory creep up but no sure if that is just because other processes are fluctuating the memory usage or if the net-snmp snmptrapd daemon is still leaking a little bit at at time with each trap received. Time will tell.
Thank You!

Ran snmptrapd and still has > memory leak. This leak with snmptrapd is coming from the log_notification() call in apps/snmptrapd_handlers.c but I haven't tracked it further than that. As was seen by others, I'm seeing approx 8KB/trap (in my case 5.7.2 on OpenBSD/amd64). If wanted, you can totally disable the mib by removing the line config_require(notification-log-mib) from agent/mibgroup/default_modules.h. (apologies for the lack of thread headers in my mail, I normally use gmane for lists, but it's been set to disable posting for this list). ----- End forwarded message ----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
