Hi!

named claims memory on the fly.
On Solaris, I have bind 8 seen claiming about 800MB RAM for its caching
database, being the resolver for the machine that creates from http-logs
colorful pictures and other fancy things...

I also don't know what the exact default is, IIRC named takes all
memory it gets.
