I think it's a new version of a problem we've seen before, in which an error-handling path uses a lot more memory than it should. It's finite, but it can keep the CPU pretty busy as it swaps like crazy. I don't know if we'll get it fixed before the imminent 1.3.0 release, but if not it'll be fixed shortly thereafter (by using a small amount of memory before returning an error message). cheers, -Brian #545: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/ticket/545 _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
