Hi all,

I run wget 1.6 and RH 7.0 on a small machine. 64Mb Ram and 100 MB swap

I find that wget is taking all my memory.
Please let me know what is happening and if I have to configure wget to
settle this in some way by telling wget "use Max mem xxMB"

Thanks in advance for your advice.

A saying of the Buddha from http://metta.lk/ 
-------------------------------------------- 
Though little he recites the Sacred Texts, but acts in accordance with the teaching, 
forsaking lust, hatred and ignorance, truly knowing, with mind well freed, clinging to 
naught here and hereafter, he shares the fruits of the Holy life.
