I'm running syslog-ng 3.0.4 OSE on Gentoo and have a central syslog host that accepts about 3Mbps of log traffic via a TCP pipe. We've recently been having oom-killer problems and I finally tracked it down to the fact that we seem to be leaking objects in the size-4096 cache. Now, slabinfo is new to me so I could be interpreting this wrong, but restarting syslog-ng definite reclaims this cache.
What data can I provide to help track down this problem?
I noticed that there seems to be a similar error in 3.1 beta, reported here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.syslog-ng/8544
Attached is a valgrind for the process after a couple hours. Let me know if I can be any more help. - -Doug -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFLJ9+BJV36su0A0xIRAorOAKCAAlDjKipjLpPcU4Ptv4TBaz2fvwCgsSZa GhTnE6zbL2/+LiQTU5Bqv6c= =coic -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
