Thanks, I am using Vpopmail 5.4.18. Was the fix after that release?

There was a memory problem in an old version of vpopmail library. It was related to usage of vlimits in MySQL. Check within mailing list for such information. You have to ugrade/fix, then recompile vpomail and courier-authdaemon. Ciao, Tonino Matthew Goodman ha scritto: Hello, I've noticed that courier-authlib slowly uses up memory over time on my Gentoo linux server. Using 2.6.21-gentoo-r4 kernel, compiler GCC 4.1.2, glibc 2.5-r4. Using the authvchkpw library, authdaemond usage looks like this after about a week: top - 00:42:49 up 22 days, 20:31, 2 users, load average: 2.08, 2.52, 2.54 Tasks: 271 total, 2 running, 269 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Mem: 2074712k total, 1966420k used, 108292k free, 134520k buffers Swap: 1951800k total, 1113692k used, 838108k free, 547588k cached PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 7885 root 15 0 217m 68m 932 S 0 3.4 0:40.84 /usr/lib/courier/courier-authlib/authdaemond 7884 root 15 0 216m 66m 928 S 0 3.3 0:39.71 /usr/lib/courier/courier-authlib/authdaemond 7883 root 15 0 208m 66m 928 S 0 3.3 0:38.41 /usr/lib/courier/courier-authlib/authdaemond 7886 root 15 0 217m 65m 928 S 0 3.2 0:40.57 /usr/lib/courier/courier-authlib/authdaemond 7882 root 15 0 212m 65m 932 S 0 3.2 0:38.97 /usr/lib/courier/courier-authlib/authdaemond Once I restart the service, usage looks much better: root 14565 0.0 0.0 4644 1132 ?
