Hi,

We run a webmail system which was written in Mason. It won't let you download 
or read large attachments (~5MB upwards). This seems to be some sort of memory 
allocation error.

If you watch the server with top(1) while downloading a 2MB attachment, you can 
see the memory usage climb quickly to 45MB. With larger attachments, growth is 
ppresumably even faster and some limit is passed, crashing httpd.

Does anyone know what is happening and how to control it, please?

Jim Donovan
