I've been experimenting with nntpcache for a while, but all the versions post 0.88.3 give me problems after a little use. With the latest 0.92.3UL It seems to work fine for a while, but after a short time connected will consume all avaialble ram and swap. Here is an example, with just one (local) nntp client (slrn) after about 30 minutes of use, at this point I had to kill nntpcached as the machine was swaping into an early grave. news 8716 0.0 0.1 25600 44 p4 S 16:41 0:00 (nntpcached) news 8747 1.2 78.2 58548 24380 p4 D 16:44 0:14 (nntpcached) I'm running linux 2.0.17, Libc-5.3.12. Any ideas why this happens, has the code been tested against purify or similar to see if it has a per article memory leak? -- Jon. <jon@gte.esi.us.es, http://www.esi.us.es/~jon>
