Hi All, 171M does sound rather ecessive to me. And its probably a memory leak somewhere. The trick is that it probably lies in an underlying library and only manifest with certain combinations of perl libraries installed and perhaps with only specific configurations. Ok, that was just waffly not very useful information. If the problem is readily reproducable it would be tremendously useful if you could try and narrow down the cause of the problem. The SSL code has exhibited memory leaks in the past, so that might be a good place to start. As for changes to ldirectord. It is currently living in the linux-ha mecurial tree. All changes should be in the dev tree, which you can see here: http://hg.linux-ha.org/dev/log/b263292dc60f/ldirectord/ldirectord.in Up until last year that tree was in CVS, the historical changes can be viewed at: http://cvs.linux-ha.org/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/linux-ha/ldirectord/ldirectord.in?rev=1.42&view=log And before that http://cvs.linux-ha.org/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/linux-ha/ldirectord/Attic/ldirectord?rev=1.144&view=log There is/are other branches of the linux-ha tree, such as the old 1.2 stable branch, and various staging trees. And ldirectord exists in all of these trees. However, as I mentioned above most/all changes go through the main tree. Lastly, if you want to file a Debian bug for this problem thats fine. It might get some more eyes on the problem. I deal with both upstream and Debian maintenance of ldirectord, so I do check the Debian bug tracker and close bugs if/when they get solved. -- Horms _______________________________________________ LinuxVirtualServer.org mailing list - [email protected] Send requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or go to http://lists.graemef.net/mailman/listinfo/lvs-users
