> After some recent testing, it looks like there is a server-side memory
> leak
> in the latest OrangeFS release. We have seen servers whose memory climbs
> without bound while the server daemon is running.
>
> I have a test case that is fairly simple. There is one RHEL5.5 64bit
> server
> and a single matching client both built from the 2.8.4 release tarball;
> the
> server config is attached. Create a simple file - mine is described below
> -
> and run the attached bash script (create-delete-loop.bash) against it.
>
> Memory is continuously leaked as seen by the chart I also attached. I
> tested
> this with the server's TroveMethod set to directio and alt-aio, and it
> appears to leak memory at the same rate.
>
> The file my test is using was created by this command:
> for i in `seq 1 65536`; do echo -n "b" >> b.txt ; done
