Public bug reported:
We recently upgraded to the ourdelta patch set (Centos5.2, x86_64, 5.0.67.d7-44.el5_2). We were running the provenscaling version mysql). Ever since the upgrade we seem to be having a memory leak in mysqld; the executable is growing by about 3gb a day. Here's an rrd graph of our memory usage; you can see the "green" (apps) portion of memory growing right after we performed the upgrade (at the end of week 8). http://www.sonic.net/~nk31/memory-month.png The application didn't change at that time; we are running the exact same SQL queries and workload before and after the update. I realize that I don't have enough info to allow you to fix any problems in this but report (but if you can think of something we could measure for you, I will). But I did want to see if anyone else has seen any leakage issues in this version of mysqld. Thanks. ** Affects: ourdelta Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Memory leak in mysqld? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/344447 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OurDelta- developers, which is the registrant for OurDelta.
