Has anyone seen Procmail occasionally become enormous?  It usually

of Procmail and across BSDi 2.0 through 3.1 which we now use.  Is anyone
familiar enough with the sources to point me at key places to investigate?
Just somewhere I can blow out a signal when huge mallocs occur.

        17 and sometimes 32 MB. BSDI 3.1. I don't know what to do with
it -- but it seems doesn't have an impact on system performance (32 
meg RAM and alredy heavy load due to ~50 apache processes).
