Hi Nick, Thanks for the analysis. As I don't have /lib/udev/rules.d/95-multipath.rules on my system, can you tell me the output of: dpkg -S /lib/udev/rules.d/95-multipath.rules If this is the root of the issue, we should link this bug against that package. -- libvirtd eats away more memory

I spent some more time on this, and it appears my leak is related to multipath. Shutting down multipath (multipath -F; service multipath- tools stop) stops the leak. Alvin also appears to have multipath running, it's listed in the dmesg he uploaded. The udev messages I'm seeing in the libvirtd

I've got something similar happening on Lucid. I rebooted a new server last night, and this morning libvirtd is using about 5GB of memory, without any virtual machines running. Looking at my munin graphs, this appears to have been happening on both of my new servers for the past few days, with the

I upgraded my laptop earlier this week, some days before the final Lucid release. libvirt-bin is installed though I don't actively use it (only accasionaly for testing purposes, but atm no vm's are installed), though libvirt has been installed for a long time earlier. Problem only now arises after

ok, I'll test this the easy (and slow) way. I have set up two servers with Lucid and libvirt and will leave them running a few days. They have nothing to do and no virtual machines are running on them. A cronjob is set up to output the memory usage every hour. Next monday, I'll be in the office
