-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to diagnose an on going problem that I have been seeing with Apache 2.0.54 on a Solaris 8 server. =20 Basically after 2 weeks or so of running fine, the machine will run out of swap. It has 2GB of physical RAM, then 6GB of swap avalible. When it runs out of swap, each child httpd process is around 22-25MB in size, and we will have between 300-400 child processes running at the time. When I restart=20 apache, the size goes down to 10MB. I did a pmap of a child httpd process before and after the restart, and the only difference between each was the heap size went from 13.9MB to 1.5MB: Before the restart: Address Kbytes Resident Shared Private Permissions Mapped File 00010000 456 456 456 - read/exec httpd 00090000 16 16 8 8 read/write/exec httpd 00094000 13976 13976 13960 16 read/write/exec [ heap ] After the restart: Address Kbytes Resident Shared Private Permissions Mapped File 00010000 456 456 456 - read/exec httpd 00090000 16 16 - 16 read/write/exec httpd 00094000 1544 1512 1176 336 read/write/exec [ heap ] The next time it happens, I am going to try and run gcore to capture what is in memory, but in the mean time, are there any suggestions as to what else I should be looking at/for?
