----------------------------------------
We want to use pupet to delete a bunch of files using tidy resource, the test
config looks like followings
tidy { '/home/mike/temp':
age => '0',
recurse => true,
rmdirs => false,
}
there are 100.000 files in the /home/mike/temp, i know that it's a little bit
exaggerative, but you never know in the future if you want to keep clean a
directory which has a lot of temp files.
i ran puppet using the command
puppet agent --no-daemonize --onetime --debug
Output of top -c, puppet stays always in the first line
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+
COMMAND
14769 root 20 0 1588m 769m 252 D 2.0 77.6 36:40.70
/usr/bin/ruby /usr/bin/puppet
Until now, after 19 hours of runs puppet is still holding more than 70% memory.
[root@dev-stage-minion6 lib]# ps -p 14769 -o etime=
19:04:17
Testing environment
====================
puppet --version
3.2.1
ruby --version
ruby 1.8.7 (2011-06-30 patchlevel 352) [x86_64-linux]
OS Version:
CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
====================
Please find below the attached message log, as the last_run_report.yaml and
last_run_summary.yaml aren't available as the puppet doesn't finish yet. You
will find that our rsyslog start to drop message from the pid 14769 due to
rate-limitting, for the next time, i already disable this features, so feel
free to ask the new log file if you need.
regards,
Mike
