It is a very frequent occurrence that what people think is being measured is not what is actually being measured. Make sure you understand exactly what the tool showing you memory consumption is measuring and especially understand if it includes memory shared with other processes or memory mapped files. Additionally you need to understand the difference between memory as the kernel sees and reports it versus memory within particular APIs such as C's malloc. > The application > never used more than 10MB and it is currently using 57+MB and continues > to climb. The single most likely explanation is this is WAL in action, the memory is from a memory mapped file and a WAL checkpoint will release it. http://www.sqlite.org/wal.html Roger -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk1hxDYACgkQmOOfHg372QRikgCdHrEuzE5p71LTaiF+WRHfG6j2 9S0An100kCApkwZI74XGYR6zxczr2m7u =d0xw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
