I have a SPARCStations 1 running debian (potato) with the 2.0.35 kernel from the distribution (recompiled, but with all the source patches). It is currently ust sitting at home connected to my pc via ethernet, it is only running about 7 process including kernel process - basically the bare minumum.
My problem is that after sitting for a day or so the memory used which started at about 8 megs becomes about 40 megs. I have turned off alot of the cron scripts such as the one that updates the locatedb and other things. Also the system appears to ust plain old get slow. Is the the dreaded slow down bug I have read about in sun4c's? I thought that there were patches for it and wondered if the debian's 2.0.35 sparc source included them? Help is a must, since I can't put this thing into action until I solve this problem, any help is greatly appreciated.
