No, I really can't see any increase over the time. It stays almost exactly at the same level over days and weeks. > > However, even with it being a sudden jump from 23m to 800m, unless someone > else has a better idea, I'd still try turning off various features one at a > time.

The problem just is that the problem is very erratic and I don't know if or when it could happen again. Should I wait one week, two, three, four before I switch on a feature again? I really don't want to run it four weeks without Bayes. Also, as you see from my local.cf, I don't have many features activated, so there isn't too much to deactivate. I keep it now running with Bayes on and wait if it happens again. Then I switch off Bayes at least as long as it took to repro. > > At this point, it looks like some kind of wild memory leak that occurs > while processing a message of some unusual sort, and that could be almost > anywhere in the SA code.
