Package: rsyslog
Version: 8.4.2-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
rsyslog consumes after running for around 11 hours following resources.
It also made the kernel kill processes because out-of-memory.
Two machine shows the same behaviour,
Machine A
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
483 root 20 0 557792 310640 2976 S 0.0 15.1 1:27.76 rsyslogd
Machine B
PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
30590 root 20 0 410336 161060 2896 S 0.0 7.8 1:21.88 rsyslogd
Both machines are have the same purpose, but machine B has load usually, that
is why I assume
less memory is consumed.
Regards,
Norbert
