Quoting the upstream changelog for 3.5.5: http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/sources/3.5.5 " * Major memory leaks have been fixed in various parts of syslog-ng, including but not limited to network and file destinations and sources, value-pairs (thus affecting mongodb, $(format-json), and others), template handling and rewrite rules. Some of these leaks only happened during reload, some leaked on every message. They have now been plugged. "
3.5.6 contains further memory leak fixes which weren't included in 3.5.5 "due to a merging mistake". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1394101 Title: syslog-ng 3.5.3-1 using 37GB of memory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/syslog-ng/+bug/1394101/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
