Hi All,
I am running $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.3.27 and Berkeley DB (Version: 4.4.20) on MacOSX 10.4.
The process crashes with memory leak often. The maximum it can go with 32 bit processor is 2 GB of memory and then it crashes. However , I have found that the it starts leaking more and crashing often (1-2 hr ) when the loglevel is 256 or 512. When it is at 32 it crashes once in 2 days or so.
Did anyone experience this before ? If so , what should be the loglevel when my intention is to make the process more stable.
Please note that the server which crashes is getting updated 5-6 % of total transaction.
Any help , suggestions will be appreciated.
I have found that many people misinterpret an oversized cache with a memory leak. Tune down your system so it doesn't use so much memory.

Hi Mattew,
We have 3 DBs and alltogether we are using less than 250 MB memory.
When the process starts , it stabilzes with 250 MB and then it starts increasing.
After putting the log level to 32 , it is slowly increasing , over a period of 2 days or so to 2 GB and then it crashes.
If I increase the log level it goes to 2 GB in 1 hour or so.
It sounds like your syslog config is somehow messed up, or osx's syslog is not very good and you should try installing something like syslog-ng.
