Hello guys, I'm runing mysql 4.0.0 under apache and mod_perl on solaris 2.28 - we are in a kinda testing/adjusting period. So, yesterday I've wrote an utility on top of `ps -o vsz,rss -e` to monitor the memory usage by my processes and also added mysqld to the list. So, here's what I saw virtual memory:295504K RAM: 241276K
So, almost all mysqld was in RAM, at that time it was running for about a week without restarts. Then a little later that day I had a disk-full and had to delete some olde records, after long DELETE and optimize table I saw: virtual: 358428K RAM: 327080K Then I restarted mysqld and server and after few minutes of work I saw: virtual: 281712K RAM: 23160K So, you see - the fresh mysqld takes only ~ 10% RAM of the one that run for a week. After that I run my utility few times every 5 minutes, and the number of threads was always 15-17 but the amount of RAM was growing by ~ 1K per 5 min. Now it is up for about 16 hours: virt: 281928K RAM: 143920K See, something wrong happens, it's back 50% in RAM. It's a memory leak, isn't it? Thanks, any input is much appreciated -- ================================== Mike Blazer [EMAIL PROTECTED] ================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
