[Mldonkey-users] Memory consumption

[Stephan Koch | DICON GmbH]

Hi there,

First off, a big "thank you" goes out to all the mld developers! Great
work!

I upgraded to mld 2.02-7 from cvs today, and so far it's running
smoothly. The only thing that worries me is the enormous amount of
memory that the mldonkey process uses - right now it's about 230 MB! I
remember some people on this list had a mem usage of about 80 megs...
Which is imho a lot but would still be acceptable...

There was an older version (think it was 2.00+pangosomething) that used
only 17 megs of memory - while the download rates were still quite ok. 

My mldonkey runs on a redhat 7.2 box, kernel 2.4.7, ocaml 3.06. I am
d/ling 11 files right now, some of them very rare.

Cheers,

Stephan
