Hi,

observing /proc/slabinfo for 4 days didn't take me any further Sad

The memory leak keeps growing, but I can't find a process allocating that much RAM in "ps" and it also doesn't seem to be reflected in /proc/slabinfo in any way:

http://www.denkmair.de/ramgone/slabinfo.html

Free memory was
~2GB on 2008-02-01,
~1.5GB on 2008-02-02,
~1.3GB on 2008-02-03,
~1GB now (2008-02-04)

(I also attached a current dump of /proc/slabinfo at the end of
http://www.denkmair.de/ramgone/)

So, again, the server has ~1GB less free memory than 3 days ago, which is not used by buffers/cache, not used by any process (at least in terms of ps rss-size), and not reflected in the privvmpages values in UBC.

Where else could I search for it?

Or maybe I shouldn't care about RAM, better get some RUM and, when sober again, really invest into a new server?
Maybe with many more GBs of RAM, just to be on the safe side? Wink

Greetings,

Hubert
