You didn't say which varnish version you are using, but we have fixed a number of memory leaks in -trunk recently. You should probably reduce the varnish storage file size to the amount of RAM you are willing to spend on Varnish when you run on the same machine as your backend. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [EMAIL PROTECTED] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] http://projects.linpro.no/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
