Re: spf-milter and memory
2004-06-24 06:51:49
The load is generally less than 1.00, both servers affected are running
2x500Mhz PIII with 512MB to 768MB memory. The load in terms of traffic is
quite significant, these two servers handle inbound mail for about 1000
domains. Yesterday the servers collectively processed just under 1 million
messages, ~50,000 messages were accepted for delivery. Very little of the
mail is legitimate (93.4% rejected yesterday) so what doesn't get rejected
by spf-milter is rejected by milter-sender. We've been running
milter-sender for a while now and aren't experiencing any memory or
crashing issues with it. On startup spf-milter is using ~25MB of memory
and starts climbing from there. Within 90 minutes it will be using ~100MB.
I suspect it's running out of memory, I'm going to see if perl core dumps
this time and analyze the core file to confirm this. We're also running
Sendmail 8.12.11 included with the base system.

Hello,
What load is the server taking?
I'm also running the spf-milter on freebsd 4.10, inside a jail actually, here
is my data:
PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME WCPU CPU COMMAND
639 root 2 0 29432K 13572K poll 13:57 0.00% 0.00% perl
669 root 2 0 21724K 6904K poll 1:24 0.00% 0.00% perl
It hasn't crashed yet (for 56 days now).
Fyi, i'm using sendmail-8.12.11..

Greetings,
I've just installed spf-milter on a couple of mail servers running
FreeBSD 4.9/4.10. I'm seeing memory usage of over 100MB and having
spf-milter crash. I saw a memory usage issue mentioned in another thread,
but far less than what I'm experiencing, and it was on a linux system. I'm
running perl-threaded-5.8.4 from the "ports" collection and spf-milter
1.41. I saw there was a memory leak in Perl 5.8.2 but I can find nothing
mentioned of a memory leak in Perl 5.8.4. Any suggestions on how to track
this down or if it's a known problem? Perl -V below...
