How about some information on the environment?

    OS??
    ntop version??? (I'm guessing 2.1.x)

Understand that 2.1.2 and below are unsupported and that the flags have
changed in 2.1.50+ to provide better granularity on the functionality (hence
the 2.1.x guess).

-S causes purged hosts to be written to the .db file... is it growing over
time??

I'm running ntop on the monitor port of our border.

The command line is:
 /usr/local/bin/ntop -i eth1 -u ntop -m (local ip)/(net mask) -d -S2 -E
-j -P /var/ntop

Eth1 is a stealth port. Ntop seems to grab an extra 8k every 5 seconds
until all available RAM is filled. The -S parameter seems to be the
problem no matter what value is used.

Is this a reasonable command line?
