Package: swaks Version: 0+20061116.0-2 Severity: normal I need to test a mail server that has to support messages nearly 100M in size. So I created a 99MB test file and redirected swaks stdin from the file with the "--body -" option. This resulted in a swaks process that took over 1.6G of virtual memory with well over 1G paged in.
I think that any RAM requirement more than twice the size of the body is excessive. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers stable APT policy: (700, 'stable'), (500, 'lenny-backports'), (350, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages swaks depends on: ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction swaks recommends no packages.
