From: Louie Bergsagel > How long before it fails? A few minutes for me, for that simple test. The question is what's memory doing? Try looking at the process with -l option of the unix ps command.
But look at this where I execute an "SH" command: EXECUTE "SH -c'# comment'" CAPTURING X & then printed a report line every 100,000 iterations. It still failed after 990,230 iterations, but ran slower & slower & slower. It took 28 hours to get to that point, whereas my old much slower PA/risc got to that number in ~5 hrs. Look at Mem SZ: constant 942, vs growing to 230145.
