Would it be possible to change the memory required / allocated for interfaces - or other nTop structures?
I'm using netflow and for reasons I won't go into in this thread I have about 16 netflow devices (interfaces) configured - at least that's what I'm trying to do. I started out with 384MB of RAM and now have 640MB. When I activate the netflow plugin it starts allocating memory until it runs out and blows up with malloc erros. Sometimes nTop dies and other times it seems OK, but the netflow plugin never works right. Why is this using so much RAM? Even with each interface using 16MB of RAM that's only 256MB total plus whatever the other structures need. The machine I'm using is an old PIII-750 that uses PC100 DIMMS. Unfortunately it only has (3) banks and I only have 256MB DIMMS laying around. I'll load them all and hopefully 768MB will be enough - just seems like it should need this much memory Gary BTW: This is 3.2.something on FreeBSD 6.1.something. =========================================================================== "This email is intended to be reviewed by only the intended recipient and may contain information that is privileged and/or confidential.
