A lot of that is shared, but not reported as such by top/ps due to changes in how the kernel reports shared memory. The kernel only reports memory that is used in shared libraries, I believe. More memory is shared between spamd and it's children. Other than that I don't know what to say. It doesn't seem like it should take up that much memory... FWIW, I can't really reproduce that. root 1525 0.0 1.2 27192 6696 ? - Oct05 0:00 /usr/sbin/spamd --create-prefs --max-children 5 --helper-home-dir -s local0 -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid root 1584 0.0 4.9 32944 25660 ? - Oct05 1:20 spamd child root 1585 0.0 5.0 34008 26168 ? - Oct05 1:25 spamd child root 1586 0.0 5.2 35172 26844 ? - Oct05 1:23 spamd child root 1587 0.0 4.9 32072 25332 ? - Oct05 1:46 spamd child root 1588 0.0 6.5 42180 33852 ? - Oct05 1:49 spamd child -- Duncan Findlay
