Summary: spamd dies with "out of memory"
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 3.1.0
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: P5
Component: spamc/spamd
AssignedTo: [email protected]

We have Perl v5.6.1 on RedHat 7.3
Recently upgraded from 3.0.0 to 3.1.0
spamd dies at random intervals several times a day.
When running in foreground with -D, the last few lines were:
[5237] dbg: config: copying current conf from backup
[5237] dbg: prefork: sysread(10) not ready, wait max 300 secs
[29077] dbg: prefork: child 5237: entering state 1

Out of memory!

I did not see an error, apart from "out of memory".
The system has 7Gb of RAM and monitoring does not show a trend in
free memory before the crash. I wondered if a particular kind of
"poison mail" was responsible but I have not been able so far to check this.
