First time poster so let me know if there is anymore information you need. We 
have been have a problem with our database ever since we upgraded it from 3.23 to 
4.0.15a. IT is being run on a Tru64 Unix box with several gigs of memory. Every 2 
weeks roughly the database seems to slow down to almost a crawl, we reindex all of the 
tables and that help but what really solves the problem is restarting the database. 
The memory usage goes down to nothing after the restart. Grows a little bit as the 
table cache is populated, and then will stay that way for several days. Then the 
memory usage will slowing begin to climb, until after 2 weeks the database is barely 
able to process a simple select statement?
        Can you guys give me some ideas on what it possibly could be, right now I am 
thinking it is a memory leak. But would love to get some recommendations on what steps 
I can take to isolate and eliminate this problem?
