Hi,
What conditions could exist for freshclam to consume 1.5GB of RAM on Linux?
freshclam tries to load the database each time, and then frees it (in
0.96.1). I don't see anything wrong with the code, but that doesn't mean
its bug free.
Could you tell me when you started freshclam the first time (date/time,
or CVD version when you started), and your clamconf output?
I can try to replay the updates and see if any of them causes a memory leak.
I had a problem with freshclam today - low memory usage, but high CPU
load : 3.2 % on a Sun T2000 (two identical computers with the same
load), which is enourmous. I just deleted safebrowsing.cld and restarted
freshclam. Everything went back OK. Don't know why...
My 2 cents.
