When I tried it my frontend grew to nearly 3GB before I caught it. If I hadn't I would have eventually run out of memory and swap space. Have you looked in the log files for anything interesting? Is this a traditional system with cpu and case fans? I assume you've looked inside and would notice, but I've had systems suffer from random lockups due to heat because the heatsinks were completely blocked with dust buildup. john- _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
