Re: [Gluster-devel] memory leaks

[Brent A Nelson]

Attached are my present spec files for both servers (which are also my 
clients); both machines use the same files.

To trigger the memory leak, all I need to do is a "dd if=/phys/blah0 
of=/dev/null bs=1M", where /phys/blah0 was created with "dd if=/dev/zero 
of=/phys/blah0 bs=10M count=1024".  It seems fine for a moment, but then 
glusterfs starts growing and growing until it can't claim any more RAM 
and becomes useless (can't ls the mountpoint, dd doesn't complete)...

Both machines are running Ubuntu Edgy + Fuse 2.6.3.

Thanks,

Brent
