RE: [GENERAL] Memory leak in FreeBSD?

2000-01-11 Thread Jeff Eckermann

Maxusers is set to 128.  RAM is 256Mg.
Do you think this could be the problem?

What is maxusers set to in your kernel? One prolem I had was that
postgresql was using more filedescriptors that my kernel could handle. If
you'd like to check your current filedescriptor status and your max, try:
pstat -T. If that is your problem, change your maxusers to a suitable
number and recompile your kernel.

FreeBSD port: I don't know enough to know what difference that might make.
Any suggestion you have would be appreciated: thanks.

Did you upgrade from source or from the freebsd ports?

None that I'm aware of that is specific to FreeBSD ... I run several
FreeBSD boxen with PostgreSQL on them...

... you arent' running a virgin FreeBSD 3.0 system though, are
you? *raised eyebrow*

[GENERAL] Memory leak in FreeBSD?

2000-01-11 Thread Jeff Eckermann

We upgraded to version 6.5.2 recently, running on FreeBSD 3.0.  Now we are
having problems with moderately complex queries failing to complete (backend
terminating unexpectedly; last one crashed the server).  The most likely
explanation appears to be a memory leak.  Is there any known problem with
FreeBSD?
