Lars,
uhm, installed that package and it confirms your suspicion:

Kernel Memory: 60 Megabytes
Application: 89 Megabytes
Executable & libs: 32 Megabytes

Free, file cache: 6 M
Hi Markus,
I just missed something in your original Mail,
I guess its not the mysql server growing to 1gig (check with ps -ely)
its simply the system memory showing no free mem.
If you have root access to the maschine its probably a good idea to
install the prtmem command (ftp://playground.sun.co
Lars,
the amount used increases until all free memory is used plus a fair amount of
swap. On a machine with 2GB memory this can well grow up to 1GB.
Any chance to get the current size of the malloc pool to check if this
causes the effect?
thx so far,
Markus

Does the memory amount used increases any further if repeating the dump
import.
If so there is a leak if not you just got fooled by the standard malloc
of solaris which wont return memory free(d) to the system but instead
the memory will be kept in a pool for the next malloc.
