Subject: [9fans] arpd memory leak.
Date: Sun, 4 Jun 2000 16:45:41 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20000604074541.x8hwWqR90KttU2ZMpzdJcSB1TpnPCe9iZQ4gtNzbcho@z> (raw)
Hello 9fans,
In the old article, dhog@plan9.cs.su.oz.au said:
I just noticed that the arpd on our cpu server is using 35M,
according to ps!
I don't have a lot of time right now to investigate.
Does anyone know anything about this?
Now I am also in trouble!
I started cron to ping all IPs in 16 segments of our university
to get IPs of active hosts. The interval of measurement is 10 minutes.
Then,
# at the beginning:
cpu% ps
...
bootes 15 0:00 0:00 64K Read cs
bootes 16 0:00 0:00 0K Wakeme tcpack
bootes 17 0:00 0:00 0K Wakeme tcpflow
bootes 25 0:00 0:00 48K Read arpd
bootes 28 0:00 0:00 36K Read icmp
bootes 29 0:00 0:00 36K Read icmp
# after a hour:
cpu% ps
...
bootes 15 0:00 0:00 64K Read cs
bootes 16 0:00 0:00 0K Wakeme tcpack
bootes 17 0:00 0:00 0K Wakeme tcpflow
bootes 25 0:00 0:00 6612K Read arpd
bootes 28 0:32 0:47 48K Read icmp
bootes 29 0:14 0:38 48K Read icmp
# and the system hangs up in a night with the message:
"no physical memory"
Has anyone fixed this memory leak?
