I saw this problem with a cache size of 250MB with about 10% (22MB) occupancy. The log of purge_url records pushed the overall memory envelope of the instance well above 3GB. It may well be as you say that eventually the records will be removed, but for all practical intents and purposes they may as well not have been :( regards, Darryl Dixon Winterhouse Consulting Ltd http://www.winterhouseconsulting.com _______________________________________________ varnish-misc mailing list [email protected] http://projects.linpro.no/mailman/listinfo/varnish-misc
