I bet it starts eating your CPU and RAM until your computer explodes ;)
But we'll see over the next few days...also it HUPs each night when the rotation occurs, so perhaps that does a lot of freeing and we'll get some stable behavior.
[...] I haven't actually had any trouble with syslog-ng on Linux since around 1.4.5 or so... Anyhoo, YMMV I suppose.
[...] Try accepting from other machines via TCP, that seems to invoke the strange behavior better. I'm also using chain_hostnames which might have something to do with it...more string ops. Here's my ng process:
USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 18717 27.4 4.3 6268 5572 ? R Oct04 642:10 syslog-ng
on 333Mhz PII. The VM use seems steady though...we'll see tomorrow.
No such luck. USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 18717 33.8 6.4 8976 8280 ? R Oct04 1169:12 syslog-ng Just keeps going up and up, with both CPU and RAM.
