So annoying that the stable release of debian isn't supported anymore. It seems like if you wait so long to release the stable version that it isn't supported anymore, it sort of defeats the purpose. Anyway, here is an example of some processes that are getting big: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 24328 cyrus 20 0 147m 6236 5004 R 27.4 0.2 22:07.21 imapd 27549 cyrus 20 0 147m 6512 5116 R 27.4 0.2 155:41.26 imapd 30097 cyrus 20 0 147m 6280 5052 R 27.1 0.2 93:44.08 imapd Unfortunately I can't tell you anymore about these processes, since they are just cut and pasted from a terminal where I checked top before restarting cyrus, and cyrus has not regrown yet. thanks, maria ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
