Issue #3520 has been updated by Peter Meier. Status changed from Needs design decision to Rejected
I'm closing that one as I think I have found the actual problem and will open a new bug report with the appropriate description ---------------------------------------- Bug #3520: removing maillist uses huge amount of memory http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3520 Author: Peter Meier Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: maillist Target version: Affected version: 0.25.5rc1 Keywords: Branch: Setting a maillist resource to absent causes to puppet to use a huge amount of memory (up to 1G and then my server was often knocked out or I remembered that bug and terminated puppet). My guess is that this seems to happen because maillist removes the archive directories etc. which can be pretty huge. But if I remove first the archive directories by hand and then run puppet it removes a maillist immediately and as it should. So somewhere in calling @rmlist@ there is something that causes to allocate that much memory. Unfortunately if you run it it with --debug --verbose etc. it won't tell you anything it just hangs at the same position where it would hang in normal mode. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
