Hello!

I have had a bit of trouble with the following message:

(host 127.0.0.1[127.0.0.1] said: 451 4.5.0 Error in processing, id=07140-17, 
parts_decode_ext FAILED: 
file(1) utility (/usr/bin/file) error: run_command (open pipe): Can't fork at 
/usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/IO/File.pm line 188, <GEN182> line 59. at 
/usr/sbin/amavisd line 2873, 
<GEN182> line 59. (in reply to end of DATA command))

Which seems to come about as memory runs out. I am not sure if this is a leak.

I am using Amavisd-new 2.6.1, Spamassassin and clamav with postfix.

The machine it runs in has 512MB of RAM and I did have it running 10 servers 
max.

I have now dropped that to 5 and am monitoring.

Is there a rough and ready recomendation for how much memory each child needs?

What tools do people use for hunting memory leaks?

Kind regards

Benedict White
