Hello, We're using cvs 1.11.2 on Linux-2.4.10 (i686; SuSE 7.3). Access to the cvs repository is done over ssh from the Eclipse 2.0.1 java IDE (using the built-in ssh client). CVS Compression level is set to "3".
I noticed that while "cvs server" is waiting for a lock (due to stale lock file(s)) and you hit "cancel" on the IDE (or the ssh connection drops), cvs server quickly eats up all available memory leaving the system in a very unstable state: System load average goes up to about 11, and "top" shows that the cvs process is eating 97.3% memory. When all memory is gone (including swap), the kernel starts killing (random?!?) processes. - Michel _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
