Should be ok. Could be cron jobs running during the night that looks at lot of files (e.g. /usr/lib/fs/nfs/nfsfind), and that fills some system caches. In case you suspect that there is a kernel memory leak: enable kernel heap memory checking, force a kernel crash dump, and use mdb ::findleaks on the crash dump: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/816-5041/kmem-1?a=view -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
