Hi Jeremy, > As I see it the problem is that your are trying to get Analog to process > a 385MB cache file with only 256MB of memory (although it should use > swap, but that will be really slow, etc.). There are two solutions:

I think about changing the provider - but that's not important here. > 2] Reduce the amount of processing that Analog does in memory.

One simple question: how do you handle sites producing much logs? do you create several cache files, i.e. every week? thanks again Andi Leppert P.S.: Somehow I'm happy to have this problem - now I've got a better understanding of analog which is really a great program! _____________________________________________________________________ Der WEB.DE Virenschutz schuetzt Ihr Postfach vor dem Wurm Netsky.A-P!
