Thread: Memory leak in FreeBSD?
We upgraded to version 6.5.2 recently, running on FreeBSD 3.0. Now we are having problems with moderately complex queries failing to complete (backend terminating unexpectedly; last one crashed the server). The most likely explanation appears to be a memory leak. Is there any known problem with FreeBSD?

Did you upgrade from source or from the freebsd ports? > We upgraded to version 6.5.2 recently, running on FreeBSD 3.0.
