Using an rsync (V2.5.6, Tru64 Unix 5.1A) command of the form: rsync -avz --delete /some/dir remhost:/some/other/dir
where /some/dir has about 460,000 files in it, I get: building file list ... done ERROR: out of memory in make_file rsync error: error allocating core memory buffers (code 22) at /usr/common/src/rsync-2.5.6/util.c(115) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (8 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at /usr/common/src/rsync-2.5.6/io.c(165) However, rsync has only increased in resident size to about 72 MB at this point, while I have limits of: cputime unlimited filesize unlimited datasize 8192MB stacksize 1024MB coredumpsize unlimited resident 16033MB descriptors 4096 addressspace 8192MB Any comments? I have not seen anything in the archives that addresses this.
