[Oisf-devel] Live rule swap testing

Fri Jun 29 19:44:35 UTC 2012

Suricata's not giving back the RAM after doing the live swap, which is
a big (99G in my case) problem:

 PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
 8513 root      20   0 99.7g  96g  67m S  445 68.3  36:01.06 suricata

It also appears to do this for each live swap, so by the third swap, I'm OOM.

This is on the latest from this morning, commit:
4cf6bb3f4cbdab8a0cd57964be801cf676d2ec26.

Suggestions?
