[FIXED] Memory and CPU leak, 1.2.4 and beyond?
« on: March 12, 2004, 01:15:29 PM »
After running aMule for some hours I've noticed it steadly increases CPU and memory use.

  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND          
    330 mentus    17   0  104m 102m 8104 R 37.7 47.0 229:01.45 amule    

      It starts up behaving nicely (consuming about 0.2% of cpu and 15/16Mbs of ram), but   after some time goes by it starts leaking CPU and memory usage IMHO. And no, it doesn't  stabilize on 104Mb, if I let it run for more days it'll use 200 300Mb of ram till all my memory is gone. Did anyone else notice this behaviour?

     I first noticed it on aMule 1.2.4, then I upgraded to 1.2.6 expecting it'd had been fixed but it wasn't. I've compiled 1.2.3 and will try it later.

 
running a Gentoo system here,
             Portage 2.0.50-r1 (default-x86-1.4, gcc-3.3.2, glibc-2.3.2-r9, 2.4.25-win4lin)

Right. I'll recompile it against gtk1 (don't really like gtk2 anyways) and see if it's gone. Thank you,

That did it. It's consuming only 15Mb of ram and <10% of CPU. I'll file a bug report on Gentoo's bug tracking system.
