It would be interesting to know what are doing your manifests, and more specifically how many resources, and how many recursive file resources. Warning what follows is not for the faint-hearted: Also, it would be interesting to introspect the ruby runtime (sorry 1.8.x only), like what is explained here: http://eigenclass.org/hiki/ruby+live+process+introspection Then after each run you can try to print the objectspace. Another possibility is to use ruby-prof in memory allocation mode: http://ruby-prof.rubyforge.org/ and http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=17676&group_id=1814&atid=7062 -- Brice Figureau My Blog: http://www.masterzen.fr/ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
